CHANDIGARH, OCT 23
Dr. K. K. Khandelwal, Additional Principal Secretary to Chief Minister Haryana and Financial Commissioner and Principal Secretary, Information, Public Relation and Cultural Affairs Departments today exhorted the youth to oppose injustice and corruption  by tooth and nail rather than being dumb spectators.       
          Dr. Khandelwal, who was speaking as a chief guest in the annual function of Chaman Vatika School, Ambala, said that today corruption was rampant in many countries of the world and the governments of Eqypt and Libya had witnessed coups due to corruption prevailing in these countries. In addition to it, people in Middle East and other Asian countries were also raising their voice against corruption. It was the moral duty of the people to oppose   every such wrong thing as is against the law, he added.        
         He said that the year 2011 had been the year of revolution and common people had been empowered. Referring to the agitations against corruption being undertaken in Tunisia, Libya, Egypt, Bahrin, Monteria, Sudan, Algeria, Middle East, in Asian countries and Latin America, he said that people in 82 countries and 950 cities of the world were raising their voice against corruption and it was being termed as October revolution. Mistake could be committed by anybody in life, but repeating it was foolishness and such people would have to pay for it, he added.
