'Every aspect of life in India is corrupt'

My only wish for India is that the country gets rid of communalism and corruption. It would then be the world's number one nation.

It is not just political parties or bureaucrats, even religions are indulging in these social evils.

All the religions in India -- whether Christianity, Hinduism or Islam -- exhibit different forms of communalism. I fear about the future of the country when I think about religious extremism. Religion is not a tool to fight each other, but to love each other.

Governance, economic and social development of the people can improve only if we stop being corrupt. It is a sad state of affairs that every aspect of life in India is corrupt.
