Corruption in Zila Panchayats - Issues

While we want corruption in Zila Panchayats to be tackled, let interested persons join the group belonging to other metros/cities. I am presently in Bengaluru on a visit, I find every activity is steeped in corruption. Examples in a couple of days are:
1. It took me 2.5 hrs to travel 10-11 km by local Govt. bus, upsetting my plans and programs for the day. I could learn that 1 ti 1.5 is usual. It took 1.5 hrs for my return. Why so, because, the traffic police do not play their rolls responsibly. In the morning I saw 5 of them huddled together under a shade and one on his assigned duty - if the seniors in traffic dept are responsible and committed, it would be a different situation. Thousands are handicapped, hundreds of fuel is wasted, pollution rises significantly and so on.
2. If concerned local authorities take care many unauthorised encroachments on narrow roads, improper parking of vehicles, working on roads, etc. could be reduced and traffic smoothened.
3. I tried to locate an address in Yeshwantpur. Over 2 hrs of efforts in auto and on food, did not succeed due to very hamphazard way of numbering of Roads, Streets, etc.
4. Minimum auto charges are the highest in Bengaluru - Rs.25 for 2 km. But most of them run for a minimum of 30/ and many meters are tampered with. 2 days ago auto fare was 180/ instead of the correct fare of 120/.
5. Every Govt. office staff are very indifferent to visitors unless you give in to their expectations - there are umpteen instances to cite.
On the whole the Karnataka Govt and its Corporations, Agencies are not touched by the recent efforts to streamline, make operations clean, etc.

Hence, Transparency Intl. can do a lot to ameliorate the citizens suffering through appropriate methods. more

It is the time participate on public discussion with out bias as is done in print and electronic media. It is the time not to keep quite just after voting and become mute Respected Members Sirs, As discussed earlier in the circle we are publishing a draft of Objectives of National Legal Forum, which we all believe to be published on regular basis in the circles as below, please revert if you have any alteration, please. FORUM FOR CONSTITUTIONAL REMEDIES WE , THE DEDICATED ASSOCIATION OF PERSONS having solemnly resolved to constitute into a FORUM FOR CONSTITUTIONAL REMEDIES to secure an un-deviated Public Welfare Oriented Policy of rule in our Nation with the Objectives aspired by the freedom strugglers of the Country as was also envisaged while concluding the Constitution of India through a significant part IV. So the concept of “NATIONAL LEGAL FORUM under NGO Provisions” for better civilization at Public Interest”. PREAMBLE OF THE CONSTITUTION OF INDIA: JUSTICE, social, economic and political: LIBERTY of thought, expression, belief, faith and worship: EQUALITY of status and of opportunity: Over and above, _ FRATERNITY assuring the dignity of the individual and the [unity and integrity of the Nation]: And to promote among them all. PREAMBLE: ¬ The Constitution adopted in November 1949 by the Legislative Assembly had the Article 32, which was provided for Constitutional Remedies to its Citizen with article 226 that is applicable in State High Courts. After many protests, representations and rigor, the Constitution was added with an Article 31 C in 1971 as amended in 1976 and the Article 39 A was also added for providing Equal opportunity of law for which it was emphasised the need of providing Free Legal Aid to ensure that opportunities for securing justice are not denied on account of economic or other disabilities. The Preamble of the Constitution was added with the Note: In 1992, Life guarantee under Constitution.... The Preamble of the Constitution promises and the directive principles are mandate to the Stats to eradicate poverty so that the poor of this country can enjoy the right to life guaranteed under the Constitution. Determination of the Judges. – Strength in superior courts held, justifiable. ¬ Once in 1982 & later in 1992, The Supreme Court had confined that “We would therefore held that any member of the public having sufficient interest can maintain an action for judicial redress for public injury arising from breach of public duty or from violation of some provisions of the Constitution or the law and seek enforcement of such public duty and observance of such constitutional or legal provision. This is absolutely necessary for maintaining the rule of law, furthering the cause of justice and accelerating the pace of realisation of the Constitutional Objectives“. Thus, the Supreme Court upheld the RIGHT OF THE PRACTICING LAWYERS to maintain a writ petition under Art. 32 on matters affecting the independence of Judiciary. ¬ The Supreme Court also cited, == where a legal wrong or legal injury is caused to person or to a determinate class of persons by reason of violation of any constitutional or legal rights and such person or determinate class of persons is by reason of poverty, helplessness of disability or socially or economically disadvantaged position unable to approach the court for relief, any member of the public can maintain an application for an appropriate direction or order or writ in the High Court under Article 226 or in the case of breach of any Fundamental Right to the Court under Article 32 . == ¬ Even though the preamble as was the original contain the whole, to be in specific on certain prominent objectives of Freedom fighters caused for the inclusion for Secured Directives of Rule for the generations. WHILE these the basics of the constitution , there had been many Supreme Court Judgements in many matters relevant to the Directive Principles those were set to achieve the comprehensive object of article 21 in the first , second and third decades of Independent Rule in India . ¬ Even then, the Selfish Personalities staged that “The court has no capacity to enforce its orders and in many cases the conditions have not changed. “ And the Honourable Court had to highlight the issues of _ · A Telegram forwarded under article 39 about the murder of his son in police lock-up filed by his father which was directed by the State high Court confining the importance of article 39 A . · The Court also taken-up such in form of a letter on white paper confining to article 32 and 39 in cases of hazardous livelihood and health loss due to Pollution from Industries etc., In the spirit and inspiration of Dr. Ambedkar “If it was asked to name any particular Article in this Constitution as the most important – an Article without which this Constitution would be a nullity – we could not refer to any other Article except this one.......... It is the very soul of the Constitution and the very heart of it.” In the spirit of Fraternity inspired by Dr. Ambedkar “Castes are anti-national in the first place they bring about separation in social life. They are anti-national also because they generate jealousy and antipathy between caste and caste. But we must overcome all these difficulties if we wish to become a nation in reality.” OBJECTIVES: It is true that “ Morality , Decency & Basic Education “ are the requisites in Citizen without which there cannot be a better Electorate and Justified rule while considering the above some of the unpleasant issues and the present status of our Statistics as at 2011 , we , the association of persons concluded to form this forum to work with keen interest for the better carry and substantial application of the provisions of the constitution through the provision of Rights to Constitutional Remedies with the following Objectives mainly. Supreme Court also had to give effect in the issues of Education, and suggested, directed the governments on application of Uniform Civil Code and even the implementation of Economic Creamy Layer of Castes to eradicate the Reservations and Relaxations to those Socially & Economically in reasonable status to full fill the real objective of applying to those only poor and poorest of the Poor in a justified carry of the concept of the Constitution. The present situation and the above legally and morally justified facts indeed necessitate the constitution of “NATIONAL LEGAL FORUM Under NGO Provisions at PUBLIC INTEREST” by the Morally , Socially and Legally active personalities to carry the objective of our Indian freedom-fighters, sustain the purpose of independent Rule in our Country for Secured Safety to our generations which in-fact is under the compulsory requirement within the purview of article 21 , 32 , 226 and the very public oriented article 39 A with the foregoing Articles of Association please . 1.

No surprises. Present day Bengaluru or entire Karnataka, or for that matter, any other South Indian state is worse than Bihar or UP. In fact the progress, if any, is from bad to worse in all human development indices. Once there used to be a few ''BIMARU'' states. But, now all can be called so as each one vies with the other in crime, loot & plunder, bureaucratic sloth, environmental degradation, deprivation, depredation, what not? Whatever is the semblance of governance to say, it is there only to some extent in the central government; but, in the states, be it BJP-ruled or ruled by any other party, there is no governance whatsoever in the rest of the country. It's just money and muscle power. more  
I make this suggestion, fully aware that nothing will come of it. But hoping against hope. Whenever and wherever we encounter difficulties like this, let us name the area, the persons responsible if we can get the information. Let there be a law for all of India, that a fine be levied on the person responsible and taken out of his pay. And double that amount from his bosses' pay, after all the boss should be more responsible. The law will not be enacted; and if enacted the courts will throw it out saying it is inequitable as no specific proof of offence exists against the officials. Hope the system will change. more  
Sam you are right, The situation is same allover India more  
Application of mind of high officials is necessary to eradicate petty avoidable issues and making the subordinates to work effectively i.e. proper supervision or few surprise verifications. more
