as an Indian, I get angered when retired chaps like Mr. Dhar, write about inept and corrupt politicians. it is not just the politicians but also bureaucrats like Mr. Dhar who are guilty of inaction and incompetence in addressing and solving the nation's problems. They occupy high-paying seats in the administration and keep cribbing about interference and all that. Most of it, I suspect is untrue, just to cover up their own non- performance or justsify their 'bechara' attitude. India can save tonnes of money and resources by cutting down the shameless bureaucracy to size. If all these chaps can do nothing, they have no business to be there at the country's cost. Time for Indians to look at each bureaucrat's record. Rediff, please try and stop retired government babus from using your forum to publicise their writings and show helplessness in their careers.
