Fighting Corruption

Since corruption has become major issue in the country and has become major stumbling block in the progress of the nation.  I have made list of measures that can prevent corruption.


Mandatory Diclosure requirements
Make declaration of assets and incomes mandatory for joining any organisation of public importance including non profit social institutions, Government service, contesting Elections or political parties.  Any candidate want to join public service or contest elections has to produce income tax filed certificate and subsequently file income tax every year and which should be open to scrutiny by a independent body to fight corruption. All firms which apply for any tender or work orders with governments should also do mandatory diclosures on their assets. Make all the tender process public.

Create Deterrents
If anyone is found corrupt then all his wealth should be attached(Already practiced in Bihar by Nitish Kumar) and sold to raise funds for fighting corruption. Arrest and jail term for flouting rules. Debared from fighting any public office including social service organisations, trusts of any kind.

Transparency
Greater transparency in all government, bureaucratic functions. No rule should be left undefined. Any violation or non implementation should be death.
Law should be passed for creating a body for regulating transparency, so that all the standards are met in both public and private decision making.

Performance Driven
Non performing public and bureaucratic functionaries should be de - promoted to lesses roles with lesser pay instead of transfer.

Streamline punishments
Create fast tracking mechanism and punishment parameters , just like traffic cops fine structure for violation is given. The corruption practices jail terms should be given. So the investigation agencies and  courts have to be no longer logjammed over small crimes.

Create Legal Departments 
Create legal dept in all the levels of government, stop depending on bureucrats for interpreting rules.

Political Party Reforms
Make functioning of political parties Transparent. Party Elections Mandatory. Bring party elections under Election commission supervision. Disclosure of funding and expenses Mandatory. Bar political parties from that constituency if they field corrupt or criminal candidates. Appoint a Regulator for Political parties to deal with violations and keeping them Democratic, Transparent, Constitutionally correct and Funding.

Ten Areas to Improve to become a Super Power for India

• Religious extremism: Long term trends indicate that liberals and moderates in every religious community in India are on the defensive.

• Left wing extremism: Extremism in the form of the Naxalite movement, which is a result of geographical reasons and also social and political forces, owing to the continued dispossession and deprivation of tribal people in India

• Corruption: The corruption and corrosion of the power center in India, as a result of political parties functioning as family firms rather than open, transparent political systems.

• Decline of public institutions: This includes universities, police, civil services, the judiciary (except for higher judiciary) etc.

• Rich-poor divide: The increasing gap between the rich and the poor which is particularly manifested through farmer suicides in India, a phenomenon that has become pervasive only in the last 10-15 years, perhaps because there is now the expectation of a 'good life' that did not exist before.

• Environmental degradation: The degradation at a local level, which is impacting people's lives in very real ways, whether in the form of massive depletion of underground aquifers, chemical contamination of soil, death of rivers, loss of species etc.

• Apathy of the media: Apathy in covering issues of rising income inequality, environmental degradation.

• Dynastic Politics : Politics not based on performance ,but on Family relationships , Loyalty pushing the urgent areas to improved like Literacy, Health, Development issues to backburner
  

• Border disputes: India's unresolved border disputes, especially in Kashmir and the North East (Arunachal) which indicates that there are parts of India that are not comfortable with being part of India.

• Unstable neighbourhood: India's increasingly unstable neighbourhood is another serious impediment to our superpower ambitions.

Faith is Pure, Religion is corrupt

Faith is Pure
Religion is corrupt

Faith
Faith is what you have as a individual, Pure love , pure admiration, pure devotion between you and God. There is no middleman and Nothing else is required. It is like a uncorrupted love between mother and child. Faith makes good individuals, Good with themselves, Family and Society. Faith is sprang out of love and good things.


Religion
Religion is a institution. It is eloborate set of institutions, Authority , Procedures, Rules , Dogmas and people. These institution is good when it is established, but over the period of time gets corrupted like any other institution. corrpution is greater in this institution because the so called checks are based on goodness of the individuals running the institutions, so there is no real checkpoints. So the corruption fluourishes ,there is no religion that has escaped corruption. So after the initial euphoria the people and institutions that were created to serve god and people , end up running them, inshort they become god.


Discussion
What happens when this continues and becomes impossible to reform.
1.New religion arises which gets the charm lost in the old religion.
2.Other institution like State , Judiciary , Business(industries) and others take greater role.
3.Other religions or faith invades the space and occupies it.
4.The society starts serving the religion rather than the other way round. Inshort the decay of society.
5.Revolution , people tear down the tyrannical religion and set up new form.
6.Anti religion movements sweep the religious institutions and faith struggles to survive.
