There is no doubt that corruption at all levels has become a disease
spreading throughout our society.I believe that both as a party and
as a government we must confront corruption head-on.First, there
is merit in instituting a new system of fast-tracking all cases
that concern corruption by public servants, including politicians.
This would bring the guilty to book quickly and clear those unfairly
charged.
Second, we must ensure, through legislation and clear procedures, full
transparency in public procurement and contracts. It is the duty of the
administration to ensure that there is no subversion of due process. And
should it come to pass, whistle blowers must be protected.
Third, we have ample evidence that all discretionary powers, particularly
in land allocation breed corruption. I would like all Congress chief
ministers and Ministers at both the Centre and states, to set an example
by reviewing and relinquishing such powers.
Fourth, we need an open, competitive system of exploiting natural
resources.
