The consequential arrest of Mr.Raja has raised many more questions than it got answered.The what,how and why of the deliberate and criminal procrastination in initiating the legal proceedings against the accused,disgraceful attempt made by one of the senior ministers in the government to defend the indefensible conduct of the former telecom minister and above all the enigmatic silence of Mr.Prime minister- all put together- cast a shadow of doubt on the very integrity of more than one institutions of governance.Given the pathetic rate of conviction pertaining to corruption cases involving political big-wigs,it would be a monumental folly to expect any immediate breakthrough yet the direct supervision of the case by the honourable Supreme Court inspire much confidence that the rapacious nexus of corporate entities,bureaucracy and political leadership will be exposed soon.The facetious arguments being tendered by the government in front of the court,frequent distortion of facts or making facts fit the reality and a growing sense of irresponsibility on issues ranging from left wing extremism to escalating inflation have exposed the ethical,moral and professional fluidity in the functioning of the government of India.
