It is very inconsiderate for any person to call a country corrupt.
As per a article Italy is one of those European nation which you can associate India with. In such a case you would find a same section of those people calling their country a corrupt country, but to an amazement Italy is still able to mantain seventh highest spot in GDP, Its not corruption that is hampering national progress its the people who need to work for its compensation rather than just speaking against it.
In India corruption cases has always been there and has become such an integral part that growth no more depends on corruption, it is for the people to wake up and fight for their rights.
In the event of launch of sarva siksha abhiyaan it was very evident that this motive did spread to each village. So instead of crying for the amount of money lost during the sarva siksha abhiyaan in form of corruption it is imperative for us to look into the enormous progress made by the government and ensure that each poor child do make it to primary education.
What I want to emphasize on is that their are agencies that are working to reduce corruption but it is very important for us to live with corruption and do our work with full honesty, and corruption would definitely come down slowly but surely.

Hello, According to my point of view, corruption is deeply rooted in India. Actually, in every field "take & give bribe is common for people in now-a-days. Rich people give bribe because he don"t want loose any success & poor people take this in helpness. But both are responsible for that. We know that, the complete system of from a clerk to highest official is corupt. We want to say that, only politician is not responsible for all that, we all are responsible for that. So we should take oath, we are starting from today to against corruption.

Hi, I am against corruption. According to me corruption is every where from Auto driver to politician. Because of this corruption rich remains rich and poor remains poor. Government has to take some strong decision against corruption and we all are with Government.

''Corruption has become a necessary evil''. I don't think so, Because only the losers and lazy persons can say this. Just because they don't want to fight against corruption and corupt people they find an easier way to make their work done i.e. 'BY GIVING BRIBE'. Just like a drunker. As he is not able to fight with his circumstances he take help of liquor, so that he doesn't have to take any action. Same is a common man as he is not able to or he don't want to fight against corrupt people he take help of money and gives bribe. But the society always oppose drunkers that they are misleading our society so don't you think corrupt people are also misleaing our society as well as our country?
So there is only and only way of eradicating corruption i.e.AWARENESS. We should be aware and make people aware that we have many RIGHTS against corruption and corrupt people the thing needed is we have to use that rights.
So don't give up until you get success in eradicating corruption JUST KEEP TRYING.

I would like to say that CORRUPTION is not necessary for success in any field, if any person have the potential and desire he can achieve everything that he want, without involving in corruption. We always blame to politician for corruption, but never think that who elect them, answer is we. On other hand we are also responsible for increasing corruption, rich person gives money to officers for making their work first without standing in queue and spending their time, thus we are making them addict of money for doing their work. So by blaming the person who demands money we can not eradicate corruption because we are making them addict.
If we really want to get rid of corruption first of all we have to change ourselves by stopping ourselves giving bribes, because bribe giver is more responsible than bribe taker, if bribe giver gives money than nobody will not deny for bribe because money is important for everybody, on otherhand when a bribe taker demands for money and nobody is ready to give than how he can take bribe. We should never think that only by changing ourselves we can't get rid of corruption because if everybody will think same than who will initiate. ANNA HAZARE stand against the corruption without thinking that public will support them or not. SO TODAY WE DECIDE THAT WE WILL NEVER GIVE OR TAKE BRIBE.

I think corruption have been deep rooted in India. Now it has reached the peak. It is ashamed to say that India leads in corruption in the world. Nobody can stop corruption unless every citizen of India are aware of it.

Corruption is something that has become vey common in today's world over the years. Corruption arises due to the greed for money, power and fame. To seek admission in a renowned college or any educational institute we give bribes, to free ourselves from any punishment by the traffic police we give bribes, to make someone do our work that we need to be done desperately we give bribes, et cetra. And what else is corruption ?It has become quite common, and so it is not the politions or the government as a whole or any other BIG man to be blamed.
If we really want to eliminate corruption from our country, it is high time that we, ourselves stop giving bribes and learn to do our work on our own and honestly. I am a devoted supporter of ANNA HAZARE and we all should take efforts like him to eradicate corruption from our country.

As a counter-point to Anna's over-hyped work re: the LP Bill (which appears likely to get some traction, given the mass mobilisation involved), let me extract the key reforms from my book, Breaking Free of Nehru (BFN) to outline what India actually needs to implement in order to remove corruption.
Basically, we need to make India's governance incentive compatible - to ensure that interests of the elected representatives are aligned with the interests of the citizens.
Note that the reforms outlined below are only PART of the total package and won't work in isolation. And do note the richness of thought and depth involved in this way of thinking, compared with the shallow thinking that underpins the LP Bill. If things were as easy as passing a Bill, India would have resolved its many problems long ago by legislating them away!
After reading this extract from BFN, you may conclude that this package won't work. But you must first read BFN and understand the complete package carefully before you can judge this "solution" - which only forms the KEY part of the package. Indeed, within the framework of this reform package, outlined in BFN, something like the LP Bill WILL work. However, the LP Bill WON'T make any difference to corruption or governance under the current system.

Hello,
I don't think that corruption is a necessary evil for success in any sphere in general, but presently in India corruption has spread in all sector from top to bottom. Our system is being corrupt now-a-days due to lack of awareness among the people for it. The common man must be awaken to fight the gigantic monster of corruption, the general public must raise voice against the corrupt personnel whether he is a politician or bureaucrat.

Corruption is common not only in India but also several other countries. Indeed There are countries which have a very low level of corruption. Corruption arises basically due to lack of moral ethics and excess money. In a highly populated nation like India where major chunk of population are poor, there is a lot of scope for the bureaucracts and politicians to bribe the people in each and evry possible.
Way. Corruption may not only be in the form of bribery involving cash, but also involves accepting favours inother ways which gives rise to money laundering, creation of bogus companies for the purpose of investment, etc.
And coming to the topic Whether Corruption is necessary evil for success in any sphere ? Yes it is atleast till recently untill the anticorruption movement started by the Anna Hazare that gave a ray of hope to the nation that corruption less society is possible. Most of the people are of opinion that Money makes many things and this is the main reason for corruption. Even though the person taking bribe and giving bribe are culprits, the person who is giving bribe is showing the path for corrupt practices which indeed is serious problem. Most of the cases situational.
Demands give rise to corruption for an individual to become success. But it entirely depends on the moral ethics of an individual to go for a corruption less society or corrupted society.
