‘Dynastic corruption’ growing challenge for the country: PM

NEW DELHI: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday said that “dynastic corruption” is a major challenge for the country and lamented that it has become a part of political tradition in many states.
Addressing a conference, he said that corruption which goes on from one generation to another makes the country hollow like a termite.
“Today, I am going to mention another big challenge before you. This challenge has been gradually growing in the past decades and has taken a formidable form in the country.
“This is the challenge of dynastic corruption (bhrashtachar ka vanshwaad), that is, corruption which is carried forward by one generation after another,” Modi said. (AGENCIES)
