Unchecked corruption at almost all levels of Govt. is one of the biggest reason that we are falling terribly fast behind our superpower neighbour, China. Our developement is being hampered so severely due to it. It is high time we think about seriously. Our freedom may be compromized in light of unresolved one day, when our neighbour finds us weak economically and militarily. Almost every person and political parties are thinking about themselves. Who is thinking about Mother India's development?
