Bane of Corruption

Accountability and responsibility are missing and ‘anybody can get away with anything’ has become the order of the day (“India has moved to pre-1991 stage”, Business Line, July 18).
Corruption is the root cause and nothing can be got done without giving bribes or misusing contacts. Regulation and supervision are directly linked to corruption. Implementation delays are accepted. Unfortunately, the code of conduct and citizens charter are seldom practised. The KPMG CEO’s observations deserve to be discussed in Parliament and action taken.
