What about the scams that do not or never hit the headlines ?
And perhaps the biggest scam of all never is taken as a scam itself by the commoners !
This scam is about diversion of low interest 'agricultural credit' (meant for India's subsistence level farmers as mandated by policy) to completely undeserving crooks !
For instance, 42 % of the agricultural credit disbursed by the Govt. of Maharashtra in the past decade and a half (which amounts to lakhs of crores) was given out not by rural or co-operative sector banks as they should have been but by urban banks situated in the city of Mumbai !!!
Where this low interest credit goes is one of India's well known (to those who care to understand) scandals but which is ignored by the media (at least by the corporatised section of the media) !
If a survey is conducted on how much illegal benefits the corporate sector and other vested interests have garnered through wrongful receipt of such agricultural loans in independent India is done, the amounts will turn out to be of the order of tens of lakhs of crores !
And subsistence level farmers continue as ever to commit suicide at the astounding rate of more than 16000 persons per year (which itself is a gross underestimate considering how the govt. excludes large sections of farmers killing themselves by sleight of hand) !
our polititicians are glorifying democracy they implemented.but see the loopholes in it.it enabled them to do corruption at the cost of country aqnd its people.what people got .India still poor,illeterate,without food,water road,education,hospitals and many more.it is not conference in hotel room,babus in secretariates,politicians can slolve it.they simply failed india,looted india.like french,russia revolution all these men must be punished.

THat will come later. First we focus of building up a strong and committed base.
Don't focus of end results ! They are unimportant.
People will one day realise that sonai gandhi and dawood use funds from the same source and work for gain inrrespective of the nature of the situation.
