General’s ‘special’

Gollapudi Maruti Rao
Two very i m p o r -tant institutions still evoke confidence and reassurance amidst the tarnished image of this corruption-ridden establishment, about which we hear day in and day out- Judiciary and the army. Sadly, these too are crumbling very recently- thanks to the former Chief Justice of India K.G.Balakrishnan, on whom there is a disproportionate assets case, and Chief of Army Staff General V.K.Singh, who fought with the establishment about his date of birth controversy before he puts in his papers. “Honesty and honour’’ are very often misused epithets, lost their sheen for being used by wrong people for right reasons of dishonesty. Hence, it is very difficult to separate the chaff from grain.
