One has to thank K.Subramaniam for his sober analysis of the corruption (IE, 30/1) in the body politic in India which has seeped into all spheres of life and sapped the will of the people. AAP and its supporters seem to be in a hurry to establish their credentials as the cruseders against corruption. There is no quick-fixes for India's many problems incuding corruption. As has been pointed out by the writer, the only way it can be controlled, if not eliminated, is to identfy sectors which enable corruption to emerge and survive. In most of the cases corrution is speed-money. Can we not evolve methods to expedite processes, reduce human contact and computerise response ? E-governance been used by many states to curb corruption. Stings and traps cannot be the solutions to corruption, and they may be used to settle personal scores. They cannot be the state policies.May be AAP has not read Mahatma Gandhi and understand Anna Hazare well. You cannot get good ends with wrong means.
