Janata Party president Dr. Subramanian Swamy today called for a
war on corruption in India. Corruption, Swamy said, had reached
mind-boggling levels, as seen in the money illegally appropriated
in the Satyam, CWG and 2G spectrum scams. He drew a connection
between corruption and the state of the nation’s financial health,
stressing that corruption has affected badly the rate of growth of
India’s economy. Swamy was addressing a seminar organised by
Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) in Chandigarh.
Swamy said that “the most acceptable estimates” of the loss to the
national exchequer as a result of corruption ran into lakhs of
crores. “One of the worst problems with corruption in India is the
creation of black money — money used in such transactions is
unreported, it is neither taxed nor is spent openly. It travels to
secret bank accounts abroad or, worse, is used by the corrupt to
indulge in gross luxurious consumption and bribery.” Swamy said.
“Black money also funds election and hence
there is no accounting.”
Swamy said that only if there is a harmonization of material
pursuits and spiritual advancement in human beings, can society be
made healthy. Several presentations were made at the seminar,
suggesting strategies to combat corruption. There was a need for a
new breed of Indian leaders — educated, courageous and rational
risk takers — it was argued.
Air Marshal (retd) R S Bedi said that to remove corruption, an
efficient use of resources, human and physical hardware and
software, by an ably and spiritually guided and ethically organized
leadership working within the framework of competitive market
economies must be the goal.
Swamy called for support to the anti-corruption movement and the
people leading it.
