NYT lauds Oommen Chandy’s

The Kerala chief minister Mr Oommen Chandy’s much hyped 24/7 webcast of his office has received global attention with the New York Times coming out with an article on the initiative.

The paper has termed the web-streaming of the chief minister’s office as an anti corruption experiment.

“In an India beset by kickbacks scandals at the highest reaches of the government, and where petty bribes at police stations and motor vehicles departments are often considered as a matter of course, Oommen Chandy is making an online stand,” the article points out.
