Corruption engulfing India like cancer: Kalam

Asserting that stamping out corruption is one of the biggest challenges that India faces, former President A P J Abdul Kalam has said the country's political-bureaucratic-judicial system requires an urgent "chemotherapy" to deal with a "cancer-like situation" engulfing the country.
"A cancer-like situation is engulfing the political-bureaucratic-judicial system, which is harmful for growth. Certainly the country needs chemotherapy at this critical hour," Kalam told Gulf News during a recent visit to Dubai.
"Establishing a corruption-free India is a major challenge. I propose a youth brigade as the solution. 'I can do it. We can do it. India will do it', should be the spirit," he said.
Kalam said there is a sense of anguish, despair and concern among people over the deteriorating democratic values and value system which is increasing day after day and there is need for urgent extraordinary corrective actions.
