  1. "Barking dog seldom bites". If forgotten, Indian administration is trying to remind this by enacting the new law to tacle corruption after every thing is over and out. Hadrly anything is being possible while in active service; and our system trying to rope the retired person alleged for scandals / corruption when he goes out after cleaning his hand out of criminal gloves.Thanx to the short-sightness and of cfcourse the fore-sight to tackle TEAM ANNA.

    Jai Hind.
