CORPORATISATION OF POLITICS / CORRUPTION
I think that is the best way a lay-man can explain the meeting of Mr. Mukesh Ambani with the Prime Minister and Mrs. Sonia Gandhi. Today the function of Government of India is limited to satisfying the political and personal interest of politicians and fulfilling the business interests of their rich industrialists’ patrons.
The UPA winning the vote of confidence does not depend on how good or bad their governance of this country was, but on how much they would be able to satisfy the personal and political interests of their supporters and settlement of family dispute of poor Ambani brothers, who incidentally are much more important to this country than the over 100 crore unproductive population.
Political degradation and corruption cannot reach a lower level than it has reached in India today. Today we are seeing corruption corrupted to such an extent that the corrupt are getting boldly richer without any national or individual goal being achieved.
In a way Corporatisation of Corruption would be a positive development in the sense that a certain professionalism and Corporate Governance may be expected to evolve in corrupt practices. Corrupt practices would be more transparent and goal oriented. The Annual Reports of Company’s would clearly spell out the amount spent towards corruption, just a boldly as they give out the amount spent on Research and Development and also the benefits accrued therein. This may also make the corrupt accountable to deliver the goods for the consideration they get.

Not such a bad idea after all, when something is better than nothing.

Preeti,
Pls dont get shocked. We cannot remove corruption from our system, as it has become the lifeline of our system of governance.
The lesser evil would be to atleast create an accountability on the corrupted people. And accounting corruption would be a first step towards that goal.
