Case Study
Suppose you are newly appointed as a District Collector, and a businessman approaches you to seek permission regarding building a mall in your city with a modernised ambience that once built will be a glorious addition to the City. However, the projected land for the mall is surrounded by slums, and therefore must be cleared before construction can begin.
The subordinate informed you that the slums were built illegally and have been breeding grounds for drug dealers and phone snatchers.
In addition, the businessman proposes that if you approve the tender, he will facilitate the purchase of a large plot of land in a renowned area of the city in the name of your wife/husband.
Critically examine various conflicts of interest and explain your course of action as a public servant.
