Find a Cop taking a Bribe in Delhi? Dial 1031
It’s been a month since the AAP government launched the AntiCorruption helpline. So now if you see any government official taking a
bribe, just dial 1031. A whooping 1.25 Lakh calls have already been made
on this number.
This figure is saddening and heartening both. The fact that people are
using this service rather than bribing, is heartening. But the fact that
so many officials at so many levels are corrupt, is very sad.
The World’s Coolest PM
PM Lee Hsien Loong, of Singapore, is probably one of the coolest
PMs in the world. While other Prime Ministers are caught up with
their day jobs of running a country properly, PM Lee also finds
time to code in his spare time. Just a few days back, he posted a
code for a computer program to solve any Sudoku, which he wrote
in his spare time.
Now that’s called Time Management!
Something we all need to learn from
PM Lee.
