*** Exactly right!
In fact the Indian govt. systems were and continues to be reeling under myriads of regulations and laws.
The regulations empower bureaucrats and clerks and peons to exercise control and thus give rise to more and more corruption. Too many laws that do not get enforced or cannot be enforced breed contempt for them, in addition to making people more and more cynical, and ultimately for people to give up altogether as is the case in India today.

DD,
I did not say " India should turn everything over to the private sector".But the Govt.can privatize non-essential functions and reduce the size of the government.The answer does not lie in having more rules and larger bureaucracies; but a more transparent and responsive system.In the case of competitive private enterprise,it is in the interest of the private operator to provide greater customer service---it is only in a monopoly,Govt. in particular,where these interests are divergent.
