Some of those who voted YES had this to say:
• Yes corruption has become more widespread. Before, corruption was confined to a few individuals, either out of greed for finance, power of status. But now after 50 years of statehood, corruption has touched every nook and corner of the state. The government keeps using money power to influence villagers to follow their policy and now the common villager will not support without getting some money first. Our whole society has become very corrupt.
• Yes. The gap between the top and the bottom rung of Naga society has widened. Of all the developmental work, the basic needs, i.e. water, road, light and food has not been secured. If this is not corruption than it is policy paralysis. Those responsible should step aside and let good prevail, that’s my earnest prayer. Kuknalim.
• Yes! Palatial buildings, stretches of private land, expensive SUVs changed every 6 months, high class hotels, big apartments in big cities etc are owned by few corrupt Nagas.
• Last 10 years got more corrupted than past 40 years
• Yes, sure has, since there is no active accountability by the public, no check and balances, since the public at large are happy with corruption, corruption has succeed in corrupting the people of the state as we partake with every demand of the state government employees. for example when you go to renew your driving license there is one fee to pay for which a receipt is given but the person who takes your photo for the smart card demands extra fee, for which no receipts is given, but we the public comply with this kind of payment, so we are all part takers of corruption as we by our agreement take part in the corruption. we allow corruption so it succeed.
• Corruption, corruption everywhere there is corruption here in our state.
• Yes, if Nagas were to live, feed and educate our kids in reputed institutions by only what we earn, we would hardly be able to build a two storyed house and drive a tat nano.
• Yes, the corruption has become more widespread. It has become more sophisticated and the amount is also increasing. In the meantime the public is becoming more immune and complacent to corrupt practices as well.
• Most corrupted state in India...
• Yes, because of the so called national workers.
• Yes, Out of 100% of central allocation, hardly 10% is utilized as actual implementation cost.
• Started with leaders who wanted position than Naga independence. So, our sense of patriotism (love for country) was not there from start of statehood.
• From 2006 corruption had hit Nagaland to top.
• Yes, the simplicity of Nagas have been, overwhelmed by the indianization politics of Indian Babus, only positive outcome could is we stopped treating our immediate neighboring villages as our enemies. now we have at least spread our love to all our tribes member, but unfortunately some of us is yet to spread our horizon of love i.e our love to all the Nagas, and ultimately to become more Human.
• Past 10 yrs corrupted the most...
• Yes. The leaders had taught all the generals and the generals had taught their subordinates, and the public those who vote for them are equally happy because they got money in some way or the other. NO WONDER NAGALAND VOTED THE MOST CORRUPTED STATE.
• Due to dishonest and lack of strong leaderships
• Yes. Zero to 90% in 50 years
• Yes, due to no accountability in the state government and the still voice of the people as they to benefit from scams, so no voice is a voice of approval to corruption even within the church.
• I think corruption in Nagaland has increased by manifold. I visited the state during Christmas and was sad to see the road conditions and also the load-shedding. It was in contrast to the many magnificent buildings springing up and sleeky cars I saw. I feel that it all must be due to corruption.
• Yes, 1. use of money power 2. unequal distribution of opportunities 3. lack of available information about the working of govt to public 4. lack of strong oppositions/organisations against govt policies 5. practice of bribe/preferences to few........... there lots more to be mentioned.
• YES.......97% YES AND THE REMAINING 3% A HUMBLE YES AGAIN...
Some of those who voted NO had this to say:
Some of those who voted OTHERS had this to say:
• One cannot say yes but cannot say No either. Corruption cannot be measured. Naga society was corrupted the day our freedom was stolen from us. It is as corrupted today as it was before Nagaland statehood.
• The whole society is corrupted. No one in particular came be blamed anymore. We are all responsible.
