Govt offices in Karnataka to display anti-graft boards

September 26, 2022

All government offices in the state will have anti-corruption boards for one year starting Gandhi Jayanti on October 2.
The chief minister’s office has agreed to a proposal by the Citizen Enquiry Council and CEC Trust.
Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai’s principal secretary N Manjunath Prasad has issued a note to the Department of Personnel & Administrative Reforms (DPAR) to take necessary action.
According to the note, the Citizen Enquiry Council and CEC Trust has proposed a campaign under which all government offices will have a board that reads: “No one needs to pay me a bribe. I will not be a corrupt officer”.
The chief minister office agreeing to this campaign comes at a time when the Congress is attacking the BJP government on the ‘40% commission’ allegation levelled by the Karnataka State Contractors Association.
