And, action has already been taken on 900 cases whereas investigation on other pending cases would soon be completed and appropriate action would be taken against the accused, said Haryana lokayukta Justice Pritam Pal (Retd.).
He said that remaining over 500 pending cases would also be disposed off soon. In these cases, the maximum numbers of cases are related to Police, Revenue and Food Supply Departments.
Pal said that to completely remove the evil of corruption, character building is very important right from the childhood. For this, the government has been appealed to launch programmes related to personality development.
“Anybody can file a complaint related to corruption. They have to write the complaint on a plain paper and send it along with court fee of Rs 1000. No court fee would be charged from poor, he added.
