Today, while
I was watching the movie named ”Chala Mussaddi – Office Office” directed
by Rajiv Mehra & Pankaj Kapoor as Mussaddi Lal Tripathi, I just felt that
some day or the other we all have faced Mussaddi Lal’s situation. India today is among the most corrupt nations
of the world, after fighting for more two hundred years, is our independence worth
earning this title. Why should the
common man always bear the cost of economic meltdown? After all it is the hard earned money from our
blood & sweat which is drilled out from our pockets in various forms. “paise
ped pe nahi lagte” At one time, bribe was paid for getting wrong things done
but now bribe is paid for getting right things done at right time.

The
important causes of corruption in India are poor regulatory structure, irrational
process of decision making, official secrecy, lack of empathy, rigid
bureaucratic structures and processes and absence of effective internal control
mechanism. Social acceptability, tolerance for corruption and absence of a formal
system of inculcating the values of ethics and integrity further propagates
corruption.
My purpose
of writing this article is not just to lecture about corruption but I want you
to ponder upon common man’s plight (as we are one of them) & work upon some
innovative ideas to improve the scenario, say no to ill practices. Please take
out some time from your busy weekend schedule to watch the movie, Chala
Mussaddi – Office Office. I am sure, at some point of the
movie you will feel yourself or your loved ones in the shoes of Mussaddi
Lal. What were the circumstances &
how did you tackle the situation? I
welcome you to share your experiences in this post.

and hypocrisy ought not to be inevitable products of democracy, as they
undoubtedly are today” by Mahatma Gandhi (Father of the Nation)
