The Punjab Government has asked all its departments to pre-maturely retire the corrupt and inefficient officers to provide a clean and transparent administration. Why can’t the same rule be extended to Kerala too?
Many of the government offices in Kerala are doing little or no work, indicated by the heaps of files pending on the tables of ‘babus’.
They give lame excuses for non-performance. A thorough review of the work record of these employees should be done. Since officials are reluctant to do their duty on time, the ministers interfere and often land up in trouble oblivious of the rules and facts. It is finally the court that rectifies the failing. The intervention of the judiciary in day-to-day matters of the government points out at the inefficacy of the bureaucracy.
