  1. Irrational Expectations ?

    In early 50s, Shri ShriPrakash was the governor of Maharashtra.

    At a short notice, he had to leave for his hometown. Being a true Gandhian, he did not want to use the government machinery for a private visit. So he sent a friend to Bombay Central Railway station to buy the train tickets.

    Friend returned with the tickets but only after bribing the railway clerk.

    Narrating this incidence to Pundit Nehru, ShriPrakash said,

    “ As a Gandhian, I promise I will not take a bribe. But don’t ask me not to give a bribe ! “

    When a service that is legally / justifiably due but gets denied, what
    can ordinary / non-Gandhian people do ?

    This is why millions are irrationally looking up to Lokpal Bill as some kind of panacea !

    Drafting Committee has an unenviable task before it.
