    All Govt officials and our politicians are corrupt. When they dont get bribes they arrest or send ED and CBI. Nothing in India moves without bribe.

    Sorry, match fixing went wrong. No timber is transported without prior arrangements with the officials. It is their private source of income. Government salary just for daily needs.
