CPI(M) and CPI will undertake a weeklong special drive against corruption all over Haryana from July 15, 2011. In a joint press release CPI(M) state secretary Inderjit Singh and his CPI counterpart Raghubir Chaudhary have announced that corruption scandals of the UPA-2 as well as those flourishing under Congress government in Haryana will be highlighted with the demand to its effective curb through tough measures including enactment of an effective Lok Pal legislation.
Units of both Left parties have already chalked out the campaign mode involving distribution of handbills and pamphlets, street corner meetings, picketing government offices etc. exposing the unholy alliance of ruling class politicians, corporate sector and the bureaucracy which was working overtime to facilitate the loot of public money and natural resources.
Left leaders have stated that the neo-liberal policies in vogue since early 90s have proved to be fountainhead of corruption as evident in the scale and amount of loot in the mega-corruption scandals exposed during recent years. They have alleged that corruption was rampant in Haryana from top to bottom though land acquisition for builders, arbitrary system for change of land use, lavish misuse of Red Cross funds ,MGNREGS ,bribes in jobs etc. The policy of public- private-partnership was being made a conduit to transfer public resources in the private hands. The recent episode of unceremonious ousting of a Haryana Minister and a Chief Parliamentary Secretary following allegations of bribes for government jobs followed by the sensational murder of two complaining cousins was mere the tip of an iceberg of corruption in the state, the Left leaders allege.
