India is huge. Could there be a district with enough integrity that it can become the place to establish a company in India?

I highly doubt it. Bribery is baked into the culture. Everyone takes bribes, and the act of solicitation does not have the negative connotations or legal ramifications that it would have elsewhere. Most Indian people who pay regular bribes are on friendly terms with the people they pay bribes to.

Also, political parties are mostly funded by bribery, and rely on literally buying the votes of villagers to maintain power. Any political entity with the power to actually tackle corruption would have little incentive to do so.

Can you please not claim it is part of 'Indian' culture ? The Indian state is anything but Indian.

[wittycardio]

How is the Indian state not Indian lol

[nabusman]

I think the state of Bihar is trying to do that (just armchair analysis from reading the news)

[ummonk]

Bihar is run by elected thugs and is the last place in India that an honest business would want to go.

[boruto]

Seriously, Is this a joke. Bihar would be right at the bottom of states if I ever setup shop.

[htoiweri23423]

If some of the 'liberal-intellectual' types in India have their way, the only thing Bihar will (again) be known for is the industry of kidnapping.

[wittycardio]

Yes because Bihar is run by liberals and intellectuals ?
