    Justice Hegde, Earlier also you had caught so many people. What happened to them ?? What I suggest you is to put a full list of officials caught till now, so that public memory does not fade. Please do not get disheartened. Go on doing your job. Let us see how long the Govt is not taking proper action against such criminals, who are making money at the cost of law abiding citizen, who pay their taxes properly.

    My sincdre praises to 'Lokayuta' members for their sincere effort to bring out the corrupt people to the public knowledge. However, we are more corrupt than them because we only made them corrupt because of our greed. We wanted everything in our favour and that also quickly and to achieve that we offer bribe. However, now the reciever will think twice to accept bribe if he has a little shame.
