Corruption is the Price we pay for Democracy

Hi.

Corruption belong to people, people who elect government. There is a simple saying. [pointing someone or something is very simple instead of doing that work itself. ].

We elect government. We are part of it. We are responsible of corruption.

We should take the blame. To end this. The first step should be apt by us.

Thank you.

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.

Democracy doesn't lead to corruption. Democracy is the government of the people, by the people and for the people. It offers a policy of universal adult franchise which permits every person above the age of 18 years to cast their vote irrespective of caste, creed and color. It leads to transparency in the process of formation of a government.

Corruption arises because of an attitude of people. It can be there in any form of government whether it is a dictatorship or democratic.

Hi, I am Devesh.

Now corruption is the most problem in our country. Because every person, who wants to get a job ready to give bribe. Politicians are corrupted because we give bribe and so we are also a corrupted person. Because clap is not made by one hand we responsible for corruption.

Hi, I am Faruk.

Today we have got a very important topic "Is corruption the price we pay for democracy?".

A country, like India where anyone can become a politician without having any knowledge just because of family legacy or by some fame. Even celebrities are becoming a politician and we are appreciating it. Why?

There is no filtration process. We give a vote because we have a lot of expectations, a lot of blank areas that need to be fulfilled. But the output is nothing.

Then we realize oh no! we have chosen the wrong leader. Corruption repeats again and again.

We have been keeping suffering the consequences of corruption unless and until we chose the right one.

Thanks.

Corruption is the biggest problem of any country. And it directly hit the development of the country, In short it act as a paralyzed disease and affect the whole people. It would not be right to blame on politicians or government employees. Because it is a well-known fact clap is not made by a single hand, let me clear it by setting an example of passport. Suppose we want to make our passport on priority while it is well-known fact that it will take a lot of time because it has to go through many investigating process or policy instead of patience we try to get it at any cost that time we pay bribe So it has come to notice that we are the main root and parts of it. So if we wish to live in corruption free country then we must improve our way of thinking because charity begins at home first.

As the saying goes as is the king so is his subjects. When the king is honest his people couldn't be dishonest with him. So everyone tries to vote and choose the right leader for better India. Thank you.

Hi, everyone.

I think corruption has very little to do with democracy rather it arises because we have been failed till now to implement the laws and provisions made in our constitution for the people. Democracy provides power to the people what kind of rule they want it solely depends on people it can be understood by an example as a powerful man I will cheat you only when I know you can't do anything against me or you don't know how to take action against me. So we need to create more awareness among people and we should try to teach some ethics, feeling of nationhood in our curriculum and moreover that very strong institution to implement laws. And young generation should come forward to eradicate corruption within their scope. And also, we can use technology to stop corruption.

Hi Friends,

Nothing alone in itself is bad and no one alone is responsible for the corruption that it today in our society?

Do you think that Democracy is playing a role in the corruption or you don't think so?

But let me tell you something "if there is a piece of Diamond on the road and you find it, it must belong to someone but would you try to find the real owner and will hand over it to him? despite the fact, this diamond has life changing value for you?

Now you need to answer me that, and in today's life how many your friends will praise you if you return the piece of Diamond?

From the time we born to the day we die, we have surrounded by rules that we follow, some are natural some are from God and some others are the one that we make it run the society in a better way.

I do agree that to all that we are the part, as we are part of the democracy, and we are part of the system, so finally it means that when we say that corruption is the price we pay for the democracy, then there is a problem in the system. That system today that we see is a democracy but you could give it to it any name. We have a problem in it because we see people are escaping from the rule of law. They are sure that you can't do anything even if the steal your money, they can kill you, rape you, humiliate you. There is a gap in the system and we are not taking measures to fill that gap.

So end of my conversation, that the biggest problem is that we are losing ethics, we don't have in place proper laws, and to implement those laws we have poor mechanisms in place and for that, we need people who accept that the problem is in us and find ways to fix it.

I agree with many of you but I think there is no role of democracy in this its the government that has two faces one of disguise in front of us and the other that's the real one. Most of the people involved in politics are corrupt. They do not join politics for the development of the country but for money also many of them in the face of politicians do illegal works and because they have power no one can say them or ask them for what they do.
