Save India
by Gopal on Jul 26, 2008 12:26 AM

Talk CD, bribe, democracy, .... The robber has gone with the loot. Think over
The government will be busy signing the many contracts for the projects.
It is time for the Intelligentsia, the NGOs and non political organizations and individuals (Social activists) to find ways to work for making transparency in the various agencies engaged in the signing of contracts and other formalities.
Let there be a detailed study regarding the pros and cons of each project. I mean public debate.
Let the present government or the coming government pass an act empowering some 'BODY' to evaluate every project from evaluation, construction to commissioning and running.
It can be termed as 'SOCIAL AUDIT'.
Let all the papers connected with the projects be within the ambit of Right to Information Act 2005
including the project study, award of contracts, construction and running.
The government will proceed as they please quoting several rules /codes.
The parliamentarians will be purchased to move along with.
I doubt very much whether any political party with special interests will agree to the suggestions.
Time is ripe to make an effort to change the Indian polity. Look at the way political parties are involved in the 'horse trading'. No paucity in principles and philosophy in preaching.
Every thing is done with an ulterior motive.
