This is a true story. A professor in India's premier educational engineering institution caught a student cheating in the exams and suspended him. Next day morning, the boys father who was a senior bureaucrat landed at his home and requested that the matter be forgotten and closed. When the requests and pleadings failed, The professor was warned of consequences. The academic that he was, the professor stuck to his guns. The harassment started. Within a week an income tax notice was served on him seeking details of his foreign travels. A few days later, police landed up investigating a house purchased by the professor in his home town. Later the income tax investigated the sources of funds for that home. In the process of scrutiny, they questioned a few more 'source of funds'. For a professor working in a remote corner of India, this was all too much. He contemplated giving it all up and taking another job. The notices, hearings, responses and harassment continued for about 20 months. Luckily the professor was clean. His foreign travel was official. The house was in a new housing society set up by a group of academics. The management was supportive. 'For 20 months, they robbed me of my sleep', says the professor. On prodding if he would take a similar stand again, he painfully says 'I doubt'! If you indeed want to fight corruption, the starting point has to be the source of corruption - the discretionary powers, arbitrariness and their abuse. It is rampant and completely normal. Remove the discretionary powers and 98% honest people will not worry of harassment when they do what is right! @suchetadalal This story is being retold. Our education ecosystem is subsumed by corruption. And it is normal too..

#WATCH | Chennai, Tamil Nadu: Subramania Bharathi, son of a daily wager working in a brick manufacturing unit, cleared the UPSC exam with the help of the State government's Naan Mudhalvan scheme. Sharing his experience, he says, "My journey has been rather miraculous... This is my first attempt... With the support of Naan Mudhalvan, I was able to succeed in my very first attempt. I owe a lot to the government’s Naan Mudhalvan scheme and to the service coaching center. They were instrumental in my preparation. I started this journey when I was just 18 years old, without any guidance. My mother and father were my first inspiration, and they motivated me to serve my nation in the best way possible. I chose civil services as the best platform to contribute to the people at the grassroots level, like us..." (11.03)
