To me, Indian Babus are the best among all the administrative services in terms of thier efficiancy and go getting-ness. Still in this country Govt execution works in minimum cost for maximum output (some time it is also a cause of corruptions). No any agency in the world (as far as my knowledge) has bee able to conduct such a massive democratic election programmes, with ut most transperent and effective way.
Mark Twain has said, every power tends to corrupt and absolute power curropts absolutely. I will say every a lay Indian is a quick learner and good follower (as far as short term interest is involved), good critic of self, a very good teacher but very bad follower of his own preaching.
Racial descrimination ?? Never ............I think we should also consider the example of other Asian countries, where Firangees are charged more than the natives in many places. To belance the curruncy diffrences.
