The Supreme Court itself has its reputation tarnished with a former CJI being all but convicted in the court of public  opinion.  Soon after this blog post, former CBI Director, R K Raghavan, wrote in The Hindu on January 18 2011, quoting N Vittal, the first CVC: "corruption in India is a low-risk and high-profit activity" and in such a state of affairs, behavioral economics suggests that elected politicians, career bureaucrats, and appointed public sector officials, from the lowest to the highest levels, will be prone to engage in corrupt activities of all manners.  Another former CBI Director, C V Narasimhan, has put forward several actionable suggestions to cleanse public life. Though I am hopeful, somehow corruption has only become worse, from the time I participated in JP movement in 1974 as a young 15-year old to now in 2011.  PVNR could save his government from a no-confidence motion in 1993 with an expenditure of merely 2 crores on JMM MPs; today that sum doesn't buy even an MLA. &lt;br&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.hindu.com/2011/01/18/stories/2011011855831200.htm" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" title="http://www.hindu.com/2011/01/18/stories/2011011855831200.htm"&gt;http://www.hindu.com/2011/0...&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">VijayAgarwala</dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 26 Feb 2011 17:57:02 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Hello world!</title><link>http://www.polltics.org/hello-world#comment-85653432</link><description>&lt;p&gt;Hi, this is a comment.&lt;br&gt;To delete a comment, just log in and view the post's comments.
