Corruption

Corruption is not a new phenomenon in India. It has been prevalent in society since ancient times. History reveals that it was present even in the
Mauryan period. Great scholar Kautilya mentions the pressure of forty types of corruption in his contemporary society. It was practiced even in Mughal
and Sultanate period. When the East India Company took control of the country, corruption reached new height. Corruption in India has become so
common that people now are averse to thinking of public life with it.

Corruption has been defined variously by scholars. But the simple meaning of it is that corruption implies perversion of morality, integrity, character or
duty out of mercenary motives, i.e. bribery, without any regard to honor, right and justice. In other words, undue favour for any one for some monetary
or other gains is corruption. Simultaneously, depriving the genuinely deserving from their right or privilege is also a corrupt practice. Shrinking from
ones duty or dereliction of duty are also forms of corruption. Besides, thefts, wastage of public property constitute varieties of corruption. Dishonesty,
exploitation, malpractices, scams and scandals are various manifestations of corruption.
Corruption is not a uniquely Indian phenomenon. It is witnessed all over the world in developing as well as developed countries. It has spread its
tentacles in every sphere of life, namely business administration, politics, officialdom, and services. In fact, there is hardly any sector which can be
characterised for not being infected with the vices of corruption. Corruption is rampant in every segment and every section of society, barring the social
status attached to it. Nobody can be considered free from corruption from a high ranking officer.
To root out the evil of corruption from society, we need to make a comprehensive code of conduct for politicians, legislatures, bureaucrats, and such
code should be strictly enforced. Judiciary should be given more independence and initiatives on issues related to corruption. Special courts should be
set-up to take up such issues and speedy trial is to be promoted. Law and order machinery should be allowed to work without political interference.
NGOs and media should come forward to create awareness against corruption in society and educate people to combat this evil. Only then we would
be able to save our system from being collapsed.

there has been a trend of give and take means give some money in order to get your work done whether in the government offices or private sectors offices. And now the

source of earning money in wrong way. Educational institutions are also involved in the corruption and they give seat to those students only who have paid for, whether they are
good students with good marks or not. Very weak students are given admission in the top colleges and universities only on the basis of money paid for wrong admission and the

knowledge, good percentage of marks and all the educational records. However, it has become tough to get job in the government offices as they need lots of bribe to give any
type of job (high level or low level) like teaching, clerk, babu, nurse, doctor, sweeper, etc. And the amount of bribe increases in the market as the level of job increase like IAS,
