Corruption is the Price we pay for Democracy

During elections, politicians distribute money. Consider for a single vote Rs. 500 are distributed per head and people accept it and vote the candidate accordingly for 5 years. That means not even 10 paise per day in 5 years.

Today even beggars don't accept a one rupee and they give people less than that. Our society is itself responsible for corruption, if they don't accept the demands then corruption will never take place. But people just doesn't care and then say our system is bad & corrupted. Instead they can use Democracy to eradicate corruption.

Corruption no doubt cannot be removed without initiative of people themselves. So we cannot blame democracy for corruption, it can rather help to finally root out corruption.

Hi friends,

In my perspective corruption is the consequence of weak democracy & lack of good governance. Corruption is lethal from elementary to advanced level. In every election we elect leaders who have been in their solitary worlds seen only during election with their bunch of false promises (manifestos). Our votes turn them into rulers rather than public servants with accountability. Then starts their ignorant reign where cash flows only in top level, leaving middle & lower levels in distraught.

This happens only because we people have forgotten that we are rulers here. They who boast of sitting on the top are our pawns. Corruption can only be removed with moral education which has degrading with time in the rat race of success. Its time to keep apart individual success and seek unified glory.

As a suggestion to change I would like to mention urgent setup and functioning of fast track courts, introduction of national protest helpline to help people to raise voice against any government if necessary overthrow a incapable government, educating the ignorant mass of the importance to stop bribery and a independent body to keep an eye on govt officials, public servants to prevent corruption.

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.

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.

Corruption is not new phenomena in India. It has been prevalent our society since ancient times. History reveals that it was Present even Mauryan Period. Great scholar Kautilya mentions the pressure of forty types of corruption in his contemporary society. Corruption is not uniquely phenomenon in Indian. It is witnessed all over the world developing as well as developed countries.

Corruption is directly related to the economy because flowing of money increases than the price of products is increasing and finally, a number of families not survive easily in our life and farmer goes for suicide.

If we see a global corruption perception index of 2013 India was ranked on a 94 position which means before coming Narendra Modi and after the demonetization fishing the news of 22nd February India ranked 81st on a global corruption perception index so definitely the national level are becoming strict laws and a non bailable punishments are needed to prevent the spread of the corruption.

Hello friends, corruption is the worst thing in our society which makes the people never to move forward. It not allow a good person to do good thing independently. Day by day it is increasing and making the people worthless.

If it will not be controlled then a rich man will always be rich person and a poor family will never be able to be at least a middle family. We can't say about who is making corruption, so we all have to be unique and fight for own adroit.

I'm Anshuman I study only in 5th grade but it is we who are encouraging this to happen as we are paying bribes.

To get work done faster. In my school we had directed a play on bribing as we included other states of corruption. There are many problems like red tapism, 2G telecom scams, Colgate scams, right to information has also brought down corruption and etc.

Through my point of view I would like to say that we all can make a change and people would not stop because of our saying so I decided we all can put our hands together and make INDIA non-democratic and a proud nation.

Corruption starts when the uneducated people in the country are been given the important right i.e. voting rights. The framers of the constitution in the initial stages if incorporated the rule that only educated people will be given the voting rights the country would not have been in despair. Sit and discuss the qualification for having voting rights in the country in the parliament. But no political party is interested in doing that because everybody wanted the votes of uneducated people by hook or crook i.e. by bribing and then becoming the leaders. Now let us talk about the leaders and their leaders are non-other than the discarded people of the society and fit for nothing citizens.
