We can't run Delhi Metro, touted to be world-class, smoothly. The
govt of the day is identified more with the alleged 2G, CWG, coal and other
scams than for its developmental actions. We can't design roads to drain
off rainwater. Nor are we bothered to dispose our garbage in a systematic and
eco-friendly way.
So, what's wrong if foreign investors are flying out of India? Obviously, they don't want to wade through
waterlogged roads stinking with piled-up garbage. Nor they want a scam to eat into their investments, particularly when greener investment
pastures have started emerging elsewhere.
However, in the meanwhile, the
government and the opposition are locking
horns on the floors of Parliament to decide 'guilty' or 'not
guilty' of scams, turning Parliament sessions
into a huge waste of time and money. Instead of paralyzing the Parliament
better if the Opposition forcefully demands fast-track, time-bound investigation/trial of 2G,
coal and other scams.
Does anybody read about Kalmadi and Raja these days? Before they fade out from our memory, better to fast-track their trials to prove them
guilty or not guilty. Simply hurling allegations on ministers and other
big-wigs doesn't help in cleaning the governance machinery. But their remaining
scot-free despite facing serious corruption charges abets other people to
indulge in corruption.
