Lokpal Bill.. The Fuss and the fizz

To a distant observer it may seem that the introduction of a lokpal into the Indian bureaucracy will result in a sudden culmination of corruption. One must keep into account that the context of Hong Kong where the concept has worked and the context of India are two different paradigms.
With the current procedures remaining as it is, the introduction of an ombudsman is likely put so much pressure on the public servants that they might be too frightened to take any decision. The Indian habit of blame game has been imbibed so deep in our roots that before taking any decision each person will try to cover his tracks.
It is my humble and honest opinion that corruption has helped India to a large extent. It has opened doors that would have taken battering rams to break down. But, we can't just judge the thing based on its outcome. Means are equally important. Hence the Million dollar question, How to get over this reeking evil?
The answer to me is very simple. It is very difficult to subside the corrupt tendencies by fear of legal action. However, it is easier to do the same by being transparent. Howsoever corrupt an official is, it takes a lot of guts on his part to be proclaimed corrupt personality. The need to save face is paramount in Indian culture.
Hence what needs to change is the political will to restructure all government procedures so that they are transparent and free from redundant steps. If this happens, the corruption will eventually ease out and development will ease in.
