Nitish once again promises action against corrupt

 

Patna,(BiharTimes): Bihar chief minister Nitish Kumar on Thursday once again trained his gun on the corrupt officials and said that their best place is behind bars.


.
 
Speaking at a workshop on ‘e-governance leadership’ for members of both Houses of the Bihar Assembly, he asserted that the government would not tolerate corruption at any level and expressed his determination that his fight against this menace would give a boost to people’s confidence.
Nitish said that his government is not going to tolerate corruption at any level and added that he is firm in his resolve of zero-tolerance and the government would relentlessly try to wipe out corruption.
The chief minister reiterated his government had enacted a legislation by which those found to be involved in corruption would not only be punished but properties accumulated through corrupt practices would also be confiscated.
However, he admitted that information technology was not being properly put to use in Bihar due to lack of infrastructure and assured that his government would sincerely endeavour to ensure gradual improvement in the field.
Nitish welcomed the Centre’s decision to introduce e-shakti to check corruption in implementation of MNREGA.

Nitish has already promised a lot, including this one, in the past. He needs to deliver sometime!

I do hope the corruption-hit Bihar will be almost free from corruption in the regime of Mr. Nitish Kumar. He seems to be determined for it. Corruption is one of the great bottlenecks for the development of Bihar whereby government welfare schemes whether cash or kind could not reach properly to the needy people. Bihar people are with Mr. Nitish Kumar for his programme to fight corruption at any cost. Our good wishes to him for good governerance full of vitality, honesty and sincerity.
