Thank you for your reply. We agree that it is hard to reduce corruption. Nevertheless some beginning has to be made. In that respect your suggestion that organizations to fight corruption should be formed, no matter however imperfect they are, is most welcome. They should pay attention to reforming the law to ensure that proper checks and balances are developed. That may take a long time to have any effect, but that is better than any drastic alternative, which may eventually fail.
All the best,
BhaskarRao(Sydney)

Dear Prasad,
Nice to hear from you. The format of this forum looks very good. Please also visit Sulekha.com and see their format. It has become very popular. Sulekha.com is started by one of our Telugu boys, Satya Prabhakar, and we are all proud of him. Of course we are also proud of TeluguPeople.com.
Now coming to the corruption problem: I don't condone corruption but it is a historical phase and perhaps cannot be avoided, no matter how good are our intentions. Corruption existed in virtually all the European countries. It took nearly 100 years of economic progress and relentless efforts to reform to minimise corruption in some of the mainstream European countries of today It still exists, but not on the same scale as in India, Indonesia etc. Part of the East Asian economic crisis was due to high levels of corruption in these countries.
So, what can be done? It is unfortunate that ultimately it is the people who cast their votes that can mop up corruption. If every political party is also corrupt, and this seems to be the case, we elect only marginally less corrupt people. This is what seems to have recently happened in TamiNadu.
Of course the media and the press can play a more active role. Again, I have heard about journalists who are also corrupt.
While I totally dislike corruption, I cannot but say that we have to live with corruption during the best part of our lives. There is no easy solution and it will take several decades to eradicate corruption from our system.
Having given all these pessimistic accounts, I would be delighted to hear from others some alternative views. Please note that I am not against severe anti-corruption policies. I am only saying that such measures will work very slowly.
