520 _aThe issue of corruption is essentially one of institutional arrangements and incentives, and above all one of the quality of political leadership and the nature of political process that throw up the leadership. A purely moralistic approach is bound to fail. We need moral fervour combined with institutional reform and an effective system of incentives and disincentives. The recent proposals made under Lokpal Bill promise an effective apparatus to control corruption in places of influence and importance. Now, there is a strong, mass supported movement against corruption, with a demand for comprehensive reforms in anti-corruption system in India. It is the time to fine-tune and rationalise the much-awaited Lokppal legislation and put into motion a sincere endeavour to make higher executive more accountable and the investigating agencies free from political meddling. - Reproduced.
