March 8, 2011List of USA Solar Installers/System Integrators/EPC Companies – Massive Growth Ahead
March 8, 2011The decline in governance standards is pervasive across all the major government institutions in India.While the Military was thought to be less corrupt,it is rapidly losing its clean image as well.There have been a number of graft cases against senior military officers as well.While a General was recently convicted by a court martial of conniving with a real estate developer,past chiefs of staff have made their corruption name by being involved in the Adarsh Housing Scandal.
Now a senior military officer of the Indian Air Force has been caught taking a bribe of Rs 20000 ( $450) for giving a favored spot to a company for displaying its fares at an exhibition.With their seniors reaping in the moolah through corruption,it has become acceptable to lower level officers to take bribes as well.The venality is spreading at a rapid pace though the Indian system.The Indian government despite being repeatedly rebuked by the courts for their inaction,remains shamelessly unrepentant.With the Indian Defense Forces now also being caught in the corruption tangle,India’s external security has also become riskier.
COI against senior IAF officer over bribe allegations

Wing Commander A K Thakur is accused of demanding and accepting a bribe of Rs 20,000 from a French company in lieu of allotting advantageous position during the show, IAF officials said in New Delhi on Monday.
