Growing population, corruption are main hindrances to the good governance: NHRC Chief

National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) Chairperson, Justice H.L. Dattu says the growing population and corruption are main hindrances in bringing good governance and development in the country. <br/><br/>Inaugurating a national seminar in New Delhi today, Justice Dattu said the deep-seated organized political or systematic corruption can paralyze a nation. He, however, agreed that the RTI and the digital India campaign have brought some progress in bringing transparency in governance and fighting the simpler forms of corruption. Justice Dattu said the best way to combat corruption is that the governments must strive to rid themselves of corruption and bribery. <br/><br/>The Chairperson stressed on the need of promoting more researches for finding tenable solutions to end the menace of corruption. He added that without achieving certain optimum standards of efficiency, it would be difficult for the country to reach the 17 new Sustainable Developments Goals set by United Nations for overall improvements of society.
