There are cynical ways to look at this—which the opposition has pointed out in India— but this end result is net positive.

I think you might be underestimating the govt exam people though. People who work in government do know how rampant is corruption, the higher ups are more accountable and do curb on corruption by transferring once it gets caught , but a lot of corruption cases are silenced. Take the recent case of delhi justice, clear example of what I am speaking about, it's not that uncommon in govt on levels where's there more managerial competition for power and money.

The opposition is brainless at best and is a walking zombie with no notable leaders and leadership at helm.

The end result of DBT, UPI and other tech initiatives is a transformational positive and will form the bedrock of reforms and future growth.

The govt exam people, again, are a tiny tiny minority. For example - 1.1 million people took the country’s main Civil services exam that has a success rate of less than 0.1%. A vast majority of these 1.1M have no serious prep. To put this in context - India produces around 10 million graduates each other. Vast vast majority find employment in formal and informal sectors.

Govt corruption is a feature on India at this point. The economy has seen mid to high single digit GDP growth with it over the past few decades and will hopefully continue to grow to become a $10T and $20T economy over the next few decades with or without govt policy/reform tail winds and corruption head winds. So no, India is not screwed.

power laws, generally as prior, top 20% of people roughly control 80% of outcomes, the top 5% of Indians including the ones in government are the people who're going to steer the country.
