All Wrong Doers Should Face Punishment |
Courtesy: Manipur Mail 16th January, 2003 |
The truck that plies on the road carries banners saying honesty is the best policy. When a Union Minister was jailed under corruption charges he complained of the inhospitable surrounding in the jail, the magistrate hearing his plea said you could not improve it when you were in power therefore you must feel what others are experiencing. Our Governor said earlier that bureaucrats work in collusion with men in power to ruin the state. The former Chief Minister RK Ranbir has been charge sheeted by the CBI for his alleged involvement in the multi core rice missing scandal. Was he really involved in the scandal? Surely he will escape as other big dignitaries did. The punishment will fall on the bureaucrats who were equally corrupt with the men in power. Our bureaucrats are really corrupt. They give improper advice to the Ministers and find ways for stealing public money. They do not think of resisting faulty and defective orders handed down to them. Bureaucracy it is said is the backbone of the administration. When the backbone becomes soft naturally the body has to fall unable to stand on its own. The involvement of former Chief Minister in such rice missing scandal could not have been possible if the bureaucrats were not corrupt. They got their own share for carrying out the defective orders handed down to them by the men in power. All are corrupt. Our thinking is very simple; the guilty persons should feel the teeth of the law. The law should be binding to all. Unless something is done bureaucrats and Ministers showing propensity for stealing public money can never be stopped. Public money is stolen openly. Engineers and contractors collude to steal public money. They spend less on the project and put more in their pockets. The lower ranked employees too steal from their own colleagues. Despite getting Govt pay for their job they earn extra money by taking bribe for file movement The Govt Doctors earn huge amount of money by working in private clinics. They do it purely for money. Or else they would have resigned the Govt job and worked in the private clinics. They are eating with both hands. Corruption has hit the vitals of the society. Therefore the state administration should pay serious attention to cleanse the society of the evils and also to make our society corrupt free. CBI should also investigate the illegal activities carried out in other departments. The recent incident of an underground organization threatening some persons of the Education Deptt for their alleged involvement in corrupt practices cannot be left uninvestigated. Govt Departments are not the fiefdom of the employees and the Ministers. All wrong doers should face punishment.
