EDITORIAL: The courage to fight corruption
We all know the gentleman Mr.Corruption.We may
not entertain him openly but would not mind taking his help if
needed. We know he is always around the corner. We also know that
Mr.Corruption has mighty friends like cabinet ministers, government
officials, police officers, private contractors, and also a huge
fan following because he makes things easy for them all. They
celebrate this relationship by throwing grand parties.
Friends of Mr Corruption are very protective of him, and would
go to great lengths to protect him. If they feel that Mr. Corruption
is threatened they would not hesitate to harass, punish and silence
those who disturb the peace of Mr.Corruption.. Hence Mr Corruption
is a very powerful man. So powerful that the once mighty truth
has to mellow and pay obeisance to him.
There are however a few souls on earth who have
realised that Mr Corruption is actually a sweet coated virus which
will kill the foundations of the society. The best thing about
these few is that they have taken the help of the now tiny guys
like Mr. Truth and Mr. Courage to fight this powerful Mr. Corruption.
We are proud in having a chance to present a
strong couple who are doing their best to fight this monster gentleman
called Mr. Corruption.
Mrs Jayashree Kumar
is the wife of a sincere IAS officer, based in Bangalore who has
taken the courage to fight it out openly. Her analysis of the
problem shows her deep concern to the average poor man of the
country.
How can you help ! Quit your jobs, give away
your family duties go to Bangalore and march down the streets
hoping for justice. No that’s not we are asking you. Show her
that you support her fight though you cannot be in it personally.
Do some basic E.networking to spread the awareness. The Indian
politician has a good ear for acoustics of high decibels.
We are trying to talk to newspaper editors in Canada and feature
her work. We are also trying to talk to NGO's who work to prevent
corruption. This needs your E-networking support. Considering
the email traffic each one of us negotiates each day, this may
sound minor but its for a noble cause. No pretensions. This is
a noble cause. You retain the right to feel good about it. I feel
nice in asking for your E.networking support.
