    Many IAS,IPS and people in judiciary are the most corrupt in India. If india want to fight corruption and overcome, it must deal with these sharks first. Smartly, they have deviated the entire blame of corruption to politicians. Politicians have learned how to use these public servants to mutual advantage. Should there be honest public servants, politicians can do little. Today, more than ever, it is important that the public servants are made to work for their pay. At one point of time, they were the least paying staff, but today they are not. They are paid enough and decent. So, it is time to focus back on these babus along with politicians.

    This catch is just a small speck in the large ocean of corrupt officials in each and every department!! See how much of wealth and property he has amassed even by holding not such a big posting!!

    These are the guys who go and blindly pump black money to buy property/flats in benami names and indirectly jack up property prices to unrealistic heights!!

    All the ill gotten wealth pumped into the system is responsible for the unrealistic rise in property prices all of a sudden and the overall inflation, the common man is the sufferer!!

    A common man however big post he is holding a company cannot afford to maintain a vehicle costing 25-50 lacs unless/otherwise he has easy access to "other income"!!!

    This is how the contagious habit of CORRUPTION curbed. If this type of raids go on, the rotten corrupt officials, in every imaginable govt or private offices, will learn to work hard and earn sincerely and live a true frugal life, without harassing the innocent citizens. Jai Ho Lokayukta, keep up your good work!!!!!!!
