Majority of govt officials are corrupt: HC
The Delhi High Court on Monday said most of the government departments are filled with corrupt officials who are eating away the funds meant for poor people and held that jail should be the place for such persons.
"Most of the staff in various departments are corrupt.
Whether you take DDA, police or MCD, 90 per cent of their staff are corrupt," Justice Shiv Narayan Dhingra said adding "the only field in which India excels is corruption."
The court made the remarks while denying bail to a senior officer of a nationalized bank, Gopal Krishna, who is behind bars on corruption charges.
"Bail, and not jail, cannot be the maxim in cases of such corrupt persons who eat away the schemes meant for poor persons floated by the government for their upliftment," he said.
The bank officer was arrested by CBI following a complaint from a girl that she had applied for a loan of Rs two lakhs under the Prime Minister Employment Generation Programme but the deputy manager of the bank had demanded Rs 20,000 from her to issue the cheque.
