I recently discovered that the fleet of 500 Zorawar light weight tanks that I approved for Bharatiya army is facing delays. I was really shocked about this news as I have ordered our facilities to work at full potential and the budget has been set aside already, so the order should have been completed by now.
Smelling something fishy, I called for the director of SHIELD, Anish Shah, a man of African descent from siddhi tribe whose ancestors came to India through Arab slave trade.
"You called for me, Mr. Prime Minister." Anish said entering the office.
"Yes Anish, come have a seat. You may already know why I called you here but still I will tell you. The fleet of 500 light weight tanks that were ordered for protection on Indo-Sino border is facing delays despite the whole budget being already set aside and no complication in manufacturing that I could find. I want you to use your network and find out the reason and inform me." I explained his task to him.
"Sir, I am already aware of this and let me tell you the reason for it. Corruption, the budget you set aside has been tempered and large amounts from it have gone in the pocket of many ministers and politicians. Give me a week and I will bring you a list of who stole from government and how much." He told me.
"These bastards couldn't even keep their greed in check without caring whether it will harm the nation. Bring me a list of all of them." I told him while signalling him to get to work. He left the room and started his investigation.
Within a week he came to me with a list of all the members involved in this web of corruption.
"Sir what should we do now." Anish asked me.
"Prepare everyone's suspension order I will sign them myself. Make sure no one knows about it. Coordinate with police and Income tax department and raid every single one of their property. I want every last Paisa back. Use torture if necessary. I will think of some permanent solution to end this corruption." I ordered him.
The next week was chaos many ministers and politicians were suspended and arrested for embezzling government funds and the money was recovered from their properties.
The RTI bill was imposed much more seriously, and to make excess to information easier I hired many computer programmers and ordered them to start making a network to connect one computer to another so that you can provide information and talk from one computer to another easily.

RAW has recently uncovered some crucial information. It seems like even after facing defeat by the hands of Bharatiya Army, China has still not learnt it's lesson. There have been heavy military movement on Bharat-Sino border by Chinese and various other small details that seems to point towards one thing only, War.
That's why government has to stop it's major projects and finish small projects ASAP and start preparing for war so that it affects the country as little as possible.
The surplus food was stored as much as possible. The talks for trade of food with newly independent countries was postponed. At the same time, raw material for military gear and other supplies were procured as quietly as possible without raising their prices too high.
The fleet of Zorawar LT was deployed on Bharat - Sino border and the intensity of training excercises of Indian Army and Air Force was increased. They were being trained for any and every type of situation that could occur in war.
The surveillance in Bharatiya Ocean was increased and any ship heading towards China or coming from there was secretly checked. The Tibetan recruits of R&AW were send to China to keep an eye on their air bases to make sure that China is not secretly importing weapons from other countries and if they are what kind of weapons to be prepared for every last bloody thing.
The production for Indian fighter jets Tejas and Aasha, produced by the help of Jews who migrated to India during world war and Arab Israel war, was speed up as Air Force will play a crucial role in this war because we don't know what China's government may have hidden to be brave enough to go to war with us after its last defeat.
That's why I instructed DRDO to start focusing on jets and light tanks that will give competition to any of USA and USSR tanks and jets.
Meanwhile after the passing of those acts during the start of my second term, the country is steadily developing. The cost of food has dropped a lot as farmers now approaches the consumer directly without the web of middlemen who will not shy away from hoarding food just to increase their profit.
Government helped the farmers who were caught up in debt trap in paying off their loans.Many corrupt goverment officials and politicians have been caught thanks to those amendment.
Using the money from insurance we were able to develop several villages and installed made in India solar panels and windmills as a loan to give the village a source of income after they pay up this loan.
Several farms were developed in a mix of modern farming and organic farming methods. And these villages were connected with biogas pipelines to provide them a cheap fuel for their kitchen use as they were still using wood and cowdung for it. Connecting villages with biogas pipelines was far easier because all the biogas plants were established in rural areas.
It was made compulsory for all hotels, restaurant, pg etc were also connected with these pipelines to reduce import of natural gas.
And my company has finally produced an engine that can run on both petrol or a mix of petrol and biofuel in a ratio of 9:1. This engine is being used in every new car manufactured by my company and the government is installing petrol pumps that can provide this cheaper and cleaner with a 95% petrol and 5% biofuel till all companies are able to manufacture similiar engines.
