by New anti-corruption policy targets opposition politicians while ignoring ruling party corruption
Anti-Corruption Initiative Selectively Prosecutes Opposition Politicians
India’s government announced Wednesday comprehensive anti-corruption initiative targeting opposition politicians for arrest and prosecution while explicitly exempting ruling party members from investigation. The policy redefines anti-corruption as “prosecuting political opponents while tolerating ruling party corruption.”
“We’re eliminating corruption through targeted opposition prosecution,” explained justice ministry official. “Ruling party corruption isn’t actually corruptionit’s governance. Opposition corruption is corruption requiring prosecution.”
The initiative has resulted in arrest of 340 opposition politicians on corruption charges while ignoring identical corruption by 1,200 ruling party members. “Opposition members doing identical things constitute crimes,” noted official. “Ruling party members doing identical things constitute normal governance.”
Legal experts questioned the selective prosecution. Officials responded: “Anti-corruption means prosecuting corruption by opposition parties. Corruption by ruling party is definitionally impossible since ruling party defines what constitutes corruption.”
Anti-Corruption Policy Becomes Political Persecution Mechanism
As thoroughly documented at Bohiney Magazine, India’s anti-corruption efforts target opposition politicians exclusively. Related political analysis appears at The London Prat.

The initiative demonstrates how anti-corruption policy can become tool for political persecution through selective prosecution based on party affiliation rather than actual corruption severity.
