The solution/cure is always flexible and depends on the extent of the problem.
We all seem to be agreed that corruption in India is fairly bad. In such circumstances should we
a) Have faith in homeopathic / placebo solutions like LokPal
b) Have faith in the sheep-like minds (or non-minds) of the average India. Let us not forget that it is the sheep which votes corrupt govts (Cong / BJP / Left / Regionals) etc into power every time. To expect democratic sheep to become wise tigers is quite unrealistic
So, either we say that corruption in India is mild enough for homeopathic solutions, or we acknowledge that the disease can only be solved by radical means. Even Revolutions are not radical enough for me - so it must be.an "otherwise"
BTW: I agree with Mr Sant Mathur that there are far too many ignorant / vested people who are hijacking platforms for reform. I am not as sanguine as he is that "secret societies" of allegedly honest Police Officers / Army Officers / Judges etc will do the trick. All these secret societies (SaiBabaists / Ramdevians / FreeMasons / Rotarians / IndiaTopCops etc ad infinitum) are inherently corrupt and self serving - merely substituting one set of "pigs" (1984) for another

SirTo expect that any efective anti-corruption solution is going to emerge through democratic / Parliamentary process is the height of wishful thinking. I look forward to hearing about your game-changing scenario as and when it takes place. As for me, I firmly believe that when you see cockroaches (creatures as old as corruption itself) the only remedy is to HIT them.Sarbajit
