Hello friends,
I'm Pankaj.
And today I am so glad that I want a platform where I put my points on corruption.
If I take then corruption is obviously like a pandemic which is not spreading in India 🇮🇳 but all over the world.
But I also would like to tell, we found a vaccine of pandemics so why not we can find this pandemic vaccine together.
I think all people know about what is corruption, and if any don't know my friend, I would like to tell you when we take bribes and giving bribes is corruption.
Nowadays even children can simply identify this.
We have always a mindset that corruption is only increasing and spreading by rich people and in democracy. You all are right but I have a question than poor and middle-class people are not spreading the corruption? Because if we see our population then the majority of poor and middle-class people. So who is more spreading?
Definitely in this part, they have also contributed themselves.
I also would like to tell you, nothing's is good or bad if we use corruption in a good way then!?
I think the formation of its name will be changed. If you see the present scenario then it can never be finished. But at least we can reduce it.

Corruption is not a new topic to discuss. I would like to share my thinking of providing basic facility to all. India have limited amount of currency and obviously every country have limited amount of currency.
But the difference is, they have 100 coins to share among 10 people and India has 100 coins to share among 1000 person. If anybody thinks that the people should get basic facilities, he is correct but the problem is "how can anybody share limited amount of currency among everyone in a huge population".
Above that lot of our country's currency is as black money that nobody has account and remaining white currency is not enough to share among all needy people. Our problem is not providing basic facilities our problem is population, from where all problems arise. Our government has already taken many actions to control population but no benefit, still population is increasing.
Really saying, we have crossed the maximum population in country among other country, but still China is been shown to the top. Actually our country doesn't even have such a strong system that can calculate our population correctly.

Hi friends!
India is the biggest democratic country in the world. We always feel proud of it. We also having a good ranking in corruption as well. There is not any way of corruption due to democracy. Corruption occurs only due to faulty system. India has great system which has crores of cases pending. A great system which leaves the rapists. A great system which takes years to hang terrorist. A great system which gives admission to 50% holder not to 95% holder etc.
According to me the government should change the structure of constituency. We should have the fast track coats. We should have the strong laws to hang rapists as soon as possible. We should have the system which creates equity in at least education. If the system is changed and become more stronger then corruption can't take place.
We feel that India is one of the biggest population country which leads to corruption due to per person income becomes less. It is not the real fact biggest population is biggest power of our country if the system is changed and made more suitable.

Hello friends,
In my point of view, corruption just starts from a common people like us. Yes because the politicians are entered to politics just as a business and to earn money, where do they get money. From the government employees. And of course we are paying and giving to government employees and they themselves sharing as to get the invested money that they have put for a government job they are sitting in. So while is the government employees. Of course, we are, So the money people pay to get a good government job to the politicians and again the same government employee get from people like us to equalise to invested amount. So in my point of we are only responsible for corruption. So there is nothing will happen in blaming others or politicians. In order to reduce corruption each and every citizen in India plays a role. It just starts for birth certificate to death certificate.
We as a people and Indians should raise voice against corruption or bribe. That is the only ways we can reduce corruption or even eliminate corruption.

In the present scenario, we Indians are paying corruption as the price of democracy. Our country has a very well constructed administrative structure. Me being a south Indian I am pretty sure that none of us would have bought our birth and community certificates for free. We are forced to pay a minimum of Rs. 250/- or above as a bribe to tasildars and intermediates. So the corruption starts from the basic block of our nation. We are having the mentality to go around with corruption. Though there is an anti-corruption department the number of cases being filed and investigated is less than the number of corruptions taking place. The reason I consider this situation is because of the delay in judgment and weight of the punishments given to those who involve in corruption. So the victim of corruption gets discouraged and this makes the citizens go with corruption.
So corruption can be vanished only by hardening the law and giving a value based moral education to the students. Such that they become moral and brave citizens in the future.

In my view, corruption in not the price we pay for democracy. Actually it is the people who encourage corruption. In government sectors, workers are not taking their work seriously and we people pay bribe to get our jobs done well before time. They normally accept in greed of money. So this all depends on us, who are accepting and giving bribes.
Secondly it is the responsibility of each and every citizen (of a democratic country like INDIA) to choose politicians who have good moral character. We have to cast our votes to right people for right job. Transparency should be there at each stage so that people can identify between bad and good. Now a day's no one can have social responsibility.
Even some republic and communist country have corruption. So we can not say corruption the result of democracy had we been democratic in the true sense, we would not have been living with evil as the case is. Corruption is live because we gave birth to it, nurtured it and are now encouraging it to spread its roots everywhere.

Corruption in a broad sense has become an integral part of the society and system. Not only India but several countries are being affected by this problem. Due to our basic nature we blame everybody but ourselves for this problem. We lack the courage to protest. We try to get our jobs done with minimum effort and in this process we do not mind to bribe the corrupts. From choosing politicians to getting things done in Govt offices we indulge our selfish interests to take the upper hand over our morality. Due to erosion of moral values we are suffering.
So if we want change then we must change ourselves first. Honesty and Integrity are needed in every person. Law enforcement agencies and the Judicial system must have the power to enforce laws and take necessary steps to curb the corrupts irrespective of the stature of the corrupt. If the officials as well as powerful politicians also start fearing the law, they will not dare to bend it and therefore transparency will prevail.

Hi this is Samyuktha.
So, friends in my point of view that corruption means to take the money from the other people through illegal activities.
Some people are corrupting through the goods and by selling the eating items in the market.
Some people having greedy in the money and they are losing the lives of the other people.
They are fixed mentally by performing these activites they can earn money.
Some countries like USA also a democratic country these type of activities are very less in that country.
Like that also we should develop our country by eradicating these type of activities. Firstly if the country develops then only we can develop.
To eradicate these type of activities and to develop the change in the people in the democratic country.
They have to think about the economy of our country property.
Its not right to blame all the times the government.
So I conclude that the every people has to change and lead our country into a developing country.

Today everyone is discussing about the word corruption and they try to blame politicians, people in higher authorities, powerful persons, etc. Everyday we hear people used to say that government is corrupt, politicians are corrupt, those who are at higher authorities are corrupt. This is situation.
Now the same people after his/her work is done after paying bribe or by any unfair means again say the same thing. Let's observe the situation, the same people who are against corruption blaming others uses the same corruption method to get his work done. Now who are actually corrupt? The politicians? people who are saying this? or the people at higher authority? I think citizens have tried to change their minds and then corruption can be eliminated. If citizens are not corrupt than politicians have to leave a method of corruption. This is the only way to solve corruption problem. Try to change your minds automatically corruption will be eliminated.

Friends,
Corruption: It's a very complicated task to end corruption. I am not sure it must have originated only in India because corrupt people are all over the world. The difference is somewhere is less, somewhere is more.
For example, if a person who is doing private job goes to a Government department for getting his job done. And every time government people tell him that he must come some other day because today concerned person has not come. When he goes other day he faces a problem somewhat like this.
As soon as he comes out of department he finds out that somebody has got his job done because he has paid some money to such and such person. And in his case concerned person has not come in office because he has not given any money to somebody else. So such kind of situation compels him to go through that way.
Conclusion: Some people want to end corruption, some people are supporting it. Unless we unite, our enemies will defeat us.
