India's corruption response worrying

Your article Indian judge doubtful about 'tainted' anti-graft figure (November 22) was interesting to read.

Scams and corruption are already highly prevalent, and the government's response of appointing a team to investigate is appropriate.

But it is highly surprising to find that to investigate, they have bestowed on the process a person that is such a controversial figure.


The National reports that this was opposed by a supreme court judge - but the move itself is a very sad state of affairs.

It is difficult to fathom why or how under the Indian prime minister Manmohan Singh's administration such a controversial person was appointed to the committee.
