  1. To days smart definition of corruption or wrong doing appears to be based on principle of pic and choose policy in lieu of uniformly broad based in national interest ( selective methodology) i.e. which side of the table you are sitting before the authority in power and maxim applies for investigation seems ” you show me the face , perhaps the authorised agency may show you the rule of roadmap in seclusion ……no uniformity of application of rules applies for similar cases or department or person. The bribe taker is punishable under law so do the the bribe giver too who may be under constraints. Look the bribe taker is always on superior position plateform unlike bribe giver but giver is made equally accused .Is it not by making bribe giver accused , the very purpose has been defeated by the authority themselves ?
