Udupi, Dec 25: Continuing with any act realizing that it is an evil in itself amounts to corruption. Hence a mind based on honesty and integrity is the appropriate weapon against corruption, said well-known thinker and columnist Jyoti Guruprasad at a seminar on ‘Towards an evil-free society’ organized by women’s wing Jamaat-e-Islami Hind (JIH) in the Lions Bhavan at Naikere here.
