Adding voice to the chorus of the anti-corruption drive, the Gujarat ACB today released a video anthem titled 'Khatam ho Bhrashtachar' (put an end to corruption).
The video was released by state Home Department's Additional Chief Secretary S.K. Nanda.
"Corruption is a social evil which must be abolished and the state government is determined to abolish it. The state government has taken several initiatives but people's cooperation and awareness is also needed," Nanda said.
"To make people aware about the corrupt officials and government employees, this anthem video will be shown at public places like bus stops, educational institutes and multiplexes. This is also an initiative to modernise the ACB," Nanda said.
ACB Director Ashish Bhatia said "ACB has got a great response in toll-free helpline project. We have filed more than 20 corruption cases in six months due to this project. Taking a step forward, we have decided to take this anti-corruption drive amongst the people through various media."
"Eight months ago we have started a publicity campaign for this anti-corruption drive. We have also designed anti-bribe radio- TV jingles and slogans against corrupt practices. In furtherance, we have made this four minute video," Bhatia added.
