Hi everyone,

In all over world corruption is the biggest key to achieve our thinking or aim to go to higher position, or go to in sports or go to in politics and also its comes in education system also, now a days lot of school are buying the fees for UKG students or 1st standard students Rs. 2,00,000. Who gave the amount or fulfill our thoughts they said I will do it for you?

This is a biggest disease in the world to bring a changes for less corruption. Sometimes, through the corruption done a good things also, so to reduce the corruption to save our people.

In my point of view, this topic is related to corruption corruption is like a caner cancer that eats all things thus corruption also eats all things As you know India is a developing country. Corruption is not only in India it spread all over the world.

Corruption is the dishonest behaviour of power and government.

It impacts due to lack of accountability. Lack of truancy of government also.

We have a mindset that corruption is spreading by the upper classes but the role of the poor and middle classes is also equal to that of the upper classes.

The main reason of spread corruption is increasing the population day by day.

Many people are corrupt which is in government.

Hi Friends. I am Raghav and I am here to convey my thoughts about our present topic which is corruption is the price we pay for democracy. This statement connotes that with the good governance form, democracy. We also have to abide its companion, corruption, which comes along with it.

This is the fee we pay for the good governance, democracy. Lets talk about corruption. Corruption is the abuse of power. The person with the power when uses his influence for benefit of himself or some special person it is called corruption.

The most common cause of corruption is believed to be a combination of discretion and accountability. Governments with enormous discretionary power and low accountability are more corrupt than those with less discretion and more accountability. Mainly, there are three forms of government. Other than democracy, the two others are Monarchy and Autocracy. In Monarchy, ruling people is always from a single family.

This is the most common and used form of government for thousands of years. The head of government is called king which has ultimate power. No one can ask question to him about his deeds. As in this system, discretionary power is totally in the hands of one man with no accountability.

This is proved to be very corrupt governance. That's why democracy had replaced earlier popular Monarchy. Monarchy is not very much popular now a day. Only five countries still have absolute monarchy.

Democracy and corruption has one same thing for the people by the people and to the people. The difference is that democracy is also for poor rendering them right to express whereas corruption has only grappled rich section to pay money and buy dreams.

Hi this is Siva.

I am saying first change the our fully education system. Presently we are following Lord Macaulay education system.

First we have to change this system. We have to enter our Bharath education system "Gurukulam". Yes it is exactly and perfect solution for corruption and extra bad things of the human.

You know friends before our country good and world rich country. Our human relation ships been's good, and no corruption. When lord Macaulay remove our education system then enter the they education system from that time we are being poor.

My say on this is corruption is just like termite making our system hollow from inside. It has moulded into a great obstacle in the path of development as the whole system is engulfed in this social problem.

The money which is supposed to feature in the development of potential projects has been used as a thing to warm the pockets of government servants. So it is taking a toll on the daily life of a common man living in this democratic country.

Hi friends!

It is not strange if we say India is a developing country and one of the reason for lagging is corruption. It is true that as per the citizen of this country we all have a duty to meet a corruption free environment. But at the same time we cannot neglect role of politicians for creating havoc.

At the time of election they come with a manifesto which is backed for the welfare of citizens but as soon the election ends they put this manifesto in the dustbin and start doing work in which they see their benefit and fill only the pocket of parties.

So we most get united to create corruption free environment and try to catch government employer red handed while they are engaged in wrong doings.

Corruption unlike other social evils cannot be uprooted just by a few revelations by media, protests now and then etc. It has laid out its roots so deep that we now view any personnel with authority to be under its influence.

Eradication of corruption completely will be an upheaval task and the whole nation will have to rise against it. It will be only when we instill fear amongst those who practice it, that we'll be up for it and have a chance of making it succumb off existence. This will require mass movements very similar to those in the pre-independence era, the only difference being we'll be fighting our own this time.

We Indians are very good in many things like caring, loving, working hard, savings, etc by which we are proud to say on the other hand because of our good qualities we just think only about our own family, house, society, etc.

So no one dare to raise correct question to correct person to get reasonable results, instead we give bribe to get our work completed then we speak about corruption, by this statement what I am trying to say is every man and women either direct or indirect responsible for corruption it is not fare to simply put blame on politician or government officer of our democracy system we have to change, we can overtake the corruption.

It's in basic nature, as long as the money or any asset got value, it will be like a sugar for ants. Though ants can't eat all the sugar in a day they will try their best to empty the sugar bag to only store for their future needs, in humans its for future future future family needs.

Especially in a country like India where still the marriage is a compulsion having kids is a compulsion and having them for entire life is a compulsion, its so natural that an employee or politician or some other will try to earn and save for entire life, ethically or unethically is a second concern or no concern as it.

Becomes so, once started. One more thing is human can't stop inventing comforts which doesn't come easy which cost a lot, so anyone who aspires to have that will try his legal ways and illegal ways as well to get those newly invented comforts though he can't buy legally he will try illegally like corruption, also because of compulsory marriage and compulsory kids population will boom.

As population booms overwhelmingly. The difference between rich and poor increases this in-turn increases the money fear factor in all employees and politicians to lead and get best life compared to the ones who can't afford, whatever the way legally or illegally, as pollution and human population on the planet earth keeps on increasing, natural calamities, scarcity of food and wealth all will have huge demand and to compete in that demand again money needed so earn it legally or illegally.

In fact in a overpopulated country like India. There is always someone to pay the bribe and always someone to grab it. In fact corruption is prevalent all across the world but significantly worse in over populated countries. Its a vicious cycle.
