A Change

Morning hours , Reading newspapers and trying to get connected with current happenings in our country, it is hard not to find atleast one article related to corruption. Initially, like every other young Indian out there I was getting disappointed to see our so called leaders involved in so many Scams. But one thought that came to my mind is "Is corruption a new thing for the independent India". It definitely isn't. We know of so many politicians who have made huge money in different unknown scams which comes into limelight only after many years. In that regards, what I strongly feel is during recent times because of the electronic media, comparatively transparent system and some governing bodies like Lokayukta the scams get exposed pretty faster. This is a good thing. As more exposure will certainly lead to more embarrassment to the politicians and ultimately lesser corruption in the long run. Now it is our turn as the responsible citizens of our country to elect the people having clean image. No caste/money power/Family name should come in our way of electing our representatives.
