How long it will take to end corruption


With corruption at outrageous level in government departments, it is highly improbable that a single bill (whether Lokpal or any other bill) will be able to root-out corruption. Corruption has got so much ingrained in the system that if we intends to be corruption free it will require at-least present generation to retire from government offices and to ensure that the new generation that replace the present generation should adopt new corruption free systems. India will not become a corruption free society in one day or by single government or single anti-corruption act. Rooting out is way too difficult and it will be very similar to how the Japanese rebuilt Japan after 2nd world war; in that they required 1 generation of working population doing unwavering work to become super power again. But it’s not that it can’t be done and the first step toward anti-corruption movement will be establishment of effective anti-corruption agency at the system level and at the individual level initiating thinking as well as starting action against corruption.
