We ourselves are to blame for this because it is we all who elect them so we first have to correct our actions the then point fingers on others. Aaj kal ke politicians ki policy is to divide & rule & we all are helping them in achieving their objective.

Very sad that law makers are proving so negligent of their duties towards clearance of Government dues.The Government should debar them from contesting elestions,beside recovering the amounts from their pensions.This default should be publicised in their constituency also.
