Governor Thaawarchand Gehlot said corruption is institutionalised in the system, and eradicating it remains as a major challenge.
In his customary address to members of the both Houses of the Karnataka legislature on July 3, the Governor said, “Corruption has become so entrenched in our system that for many reasons it has become almost institutionalised. Eradicating it is a major challenge. The government would take all necessary administrative and legislative measures to check corruption.”
Corruption was one of major poll planks of the Congress in the Assembly elections.
