why do the politicians take money meant for public use?

Question

the money collected by means of taxes is given for public service like construction of good roads,footpaths,etc. is reduced to 1/4 till it reaches the pwd and no proper roads are constructed.the roads are also digged up for certain purposes and left with holes for the people to fall and die.why is our government so much irresponsible??

Answer 1

Because people, you and me, have elected those representatives who are robbing public money. Will the general public elect people without considering the caste, religion, favours and other sectarian considerations and elect only based on the honesty and transparency in deals of leaders. Everything starts at this point. It has to be nibbed in the bud, and action should start from here for a corrupt free society.

They will never do that and everybody including the PM does not want to do this. Do you see that all politicians have good understanding when comes to public money?.
