Re: [HumJanenge] Is corruption "good" and to be encouraged

We are surprised that people have misunderstood the stand taken by the
true soldier Gen VK Singh. As far as the General is concerned, he has
reached the pinnacle of the Army career. Most of the people think
about life after Retirement and get good or plum appointments like
Governors, Ambassadors, or high level posts in PSUs and other Govt
Organisations. Gen VK Singh sacrificed these and took upon himself and
exposed the corruptions in the Govt. We sholud all stand up and salute
him. Let the corrupt get exposed. Let there be a few more like him,
Anna Hazare etc who can change the present autocratic political and
bureaucratic system. This should done fast.
