Graft.

I inwardly cringe whenever I read a news item or see on T.V that a petty clerk or some low ranking official has been caught for taking bribes ranging from Rs 2000 to 5000 .The drive against corruption in India is invariably against the lowliest for accepting measly sums ,whilst those taking hefty bribes running into crores like Bofors,Fodder scam and the currently on going spectrum scams are let off after initial hue and cry and such people slither back into power within a matter of months whilst that lowly official would have had his entire life ruined by being dismissed from a bread winning job!
Every one agrees that the corrupt must be booked. But in actual practise the gravity of the offence is determined by the amount of money given and accepted! If the sum is in thousands and if one is caught in order to fill the the register of the anti corruption bureau [before their internal inspection] one is done for.

But if the stakes are high i.e. in crores ,one need never worry! That person is on the right track.All the obstacles will easily fall on the way side . His future is by all means getting brighter and richer with more power and wealth on the anvil!
