My rambling thoughts - Jayalalitha

High court to-day dismissed cases against Jayalalitha and let her free. Really, this is a good news, that atleast after a long time, the court has ruled that there is no proof for the allegations.
True she might have immense fortune. She was a long time film star- a heroine-who might have earned a lot, before she went for politics. After all, why should she amass wealth illegally? She is a single woman who is not married and has no family. And she is working for the improvement of her State of Tamilnadu. I think, at the end, all her wealth, however immense it is, will be left for the welfare of the people of Tamilnadu.

My rambling thoughts - on corruption

On corruption
I remember, for nearly more than 50 years, corruption has been mentioned, and the leaders have declared that the corruption will be eradicated in their tenure of power.  But, every year, corruption is spreading like a wild fire. And to put it off needs a super-human power.
Let us think from the beginning.  A child is promised a toffee if he eats his dinner, or does his home work. So, the human nature, with its harmless incentive for extra benefit, naturally has developed the corruption which is now felt harmful. Only a powerful ruler, and the will of the citizens can eradicate this evil.
A powerful leader can make laws incriminating and banning corruption. Already,corruption is banned in our country. But, how many can you fine, or put in jail for the crime? . Besides, how do the authorities know that a certain transaction is illegal or undertaken for some gift, either by money or Kind.
