  • Corruption in India: Bridging Research Evidence and Policy Options
    Corruption in India: Bridging Research Evidence and Policy Options Sandip Sukhtankar1 Milan Vaishnav2 April 27, 2015 Abstract Corruption has become an increasingly salient issue in India today, spawning both enormous interest from the media as well as a large amount of academic research. Yet there is a large gap between what has captured the media’s attention, the policy options under discussion, and the actual evidence base drawn from empirical research on corruption. We attempt to bridge this gap, directly addressing the particular challenges that corruption in India poses. Academic evidence supports the popular perception that corruption is widespread and endemic. However, we find that the costs of day-to-day corruption are just as large, if not larger, than those of the “scams” that dominate headlines. Further, we find that there is very little evidence to support the idea that greater transparency, information, and community based efforts have a significant impact on reducing corruption on their own. This is also true for some technological interventions, although those interventions – like direct benefit transfers – that bypass middlemen and corrupt officials have a much greater scope for success, as do interventions that transfer bargaining power to citizens and beneficiaries. We find much to commend in the sensible and wide-ranging legislative agenda to combat corruption, including the Right to Service and Public Procurement bills. However, what is most important for combating corruption is not the law on paper but the implementation of the law; the binding constraint, as always, is the government’s desire and ability to punish corrupt officials and politicians.

  • An Overview of the November-December 2008 Provincial Elections in India
    ISA S Insights No. 43 – Date: 17 December 2008 469A Bukit Timah Road #07-01, Tower Block, Singapore 259770 Tel: 6516 6179 / 6516 4239 Fax: 6776 7505 / 6314 5447 Email: [email protected] Website: www.isas.nus.edu.sg An Overview of the November-December 2008 Provincial Elections in India Paranjoy Guha Thakurta∗ Introduction The outcome of the elections to the legislative assemblies of five Indian provinces or states, namely, Chhattisgarh, Delhi, Madhya Pradesh, Mizoram and Rajasthan, that became known on 8 December 2008, indicates that voters in the world’s largest democracy are becoming increasingly mature. Even as votes are cast in favour of candidates and political parties that provide (and not merely promise) good governance, anti-incumbency sentiments remain pronounced in many parts of the country. In addition, India’s voters – poor and uneducated though many of them may be – appear to be less prone to be influenced by emotive issues related to terrorism, religion, caste and community and seem to be more concerned with what could be considered substantive issues pertaining to economic and social development. The results of the recently-concluded assembly elections have made the country’s two largest political parties, the Indian National Congress (INC) and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), introspect about their future while drawing up strategies in the run-up to the forthcoming fifteenth general elections that, it now seems, will be conducted on schedule in April-May 2009. The Backdrop In December 2003, the right-wing, Hindu nationalist BJP, leading the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) coalition, which was then in power in New Delhi, was exuding confidence.

Corruption in the Indian Political System By Khusboo Desai **************** Submitted in partial fulfillment Of the requirements for Honors in the Department of Anthropology UNION COLLEGE MARCH 2011 1 ABSTRACT DESAI, KHUSBOO Corruption in the Indian Political System. Department of Anthropology, March 2011. Currently, India and China are both competing to be the hegemonic power in Asia as well as a superpower internationally. Both are growing at double-digit rates, while other nations are dealing with the current recession. However, while China is reducing corruption which ultimately translates into money lost by the government, corruption in India is increasing at a rapid pace1. According to Transparency International’s Corruption Perception Index 2010, India ranked 87 out of 180 nations. Though, India ranked better than half the other nations, India fell from 72nd (2007) to 84th in two years. In my thesis, I explore the relationship between voters and politicians in order to understand why corruption dominates the political system and why voters tolerate corruption by electing known corrupt leaders to office.

  • Shri Gegong Apang 52
    ADDRESS OF SHRI GEGONG APANG CHIEF MINISTER ARUNACHAL PRADESH nd 52 MEETING OF THE NATIONAL DEVELOPMENT COUNCIL AT VIGYAN BHAVAN NEW DELHI 9th December, 2006 Hon'ble Prime Minister, the Chairman of NDC, Hon'ble Deputy Chairman, Planning Commission, Hon'ble Union Ministers, my colleague Chief Ministers, Senior Officers, Ladies and Gentlemen. At the outset I would like to compliment the Hon'ble Prime Minister, the Hon'ble Deputy Chairman, Planning Commission and his team of experts for preparing a visionary and comprehensive 'Approach to the 11th Five Year Plan' document to steer the process of achieving a new vision towards faster, more broad-based and inclusive growth. This 52nd NDC meeting is crucially important as the 11th Five Year Plan would set the pace of the development of the country's economy for the next five years. The broad parameters of the Approach to the 11th Five Year Plan rightly emphasise economic growth, poverty eradication, job creation, elimination of disparities among States, and improvement in quality of life as important goals. Before I make some observations and suggestions with respect to my State for the consideration of this highest national planning body, I would like to thank the Hon'ble Foreign Minister, Shri Pranab Mukherjee for his statement that Arunachal Pradesh is an inalienable and integral part of India. However, I must say that there is an urgent need to bridge the massive economic gap that exists between our State and the highly developed States like Maharashtra, Kamataka, Haryana and Punjab to name a few. In spite of the fact that Arunachal Pradesh happens to be a highly sensitive border State , we are several decades behind the developed States.
