Panchayati Raj law amendment in Karnataka

http://www.indiatogether.org/2005/dec/gov-mpsscam.htm

Instances of MLAs being subjected to horse trading and corruption abound. Suffice to say that their integrity is not entirely unquestionable. Another argument that favors decentralization of ex-chequers funds is the 'cash for query' and 'MPLADS" cases. Some of the MPs,from different political parties, were caught on tape Literally accepting/demanding bribes for the schemes, putting the whole exercise of Karnataka Assembly's intension behind the amendment of the State constitution in doubt. In stead, the people who conducted the sting operation were punished.
