Hi.

Privatization will lead to Less Corruption, In today's world there is nexus between private companies and corruption, Corruption comes from moral, social and economic factors and has nothing to do with Private companies. Every transaction of property has black money involved which has increased the prices to so much that common man cannot get decent housing.

However we have seen that privatization can help reduce corruption in some of the industries like Power sector, there is a cost associated with it as companies are not working for social causes and profitability is there objective.

Corruption cannot be eradicated completely by privatisation as we have seen corruption in allotting the telecom licenses in 2G and coal fields to private companies.

Corruption can be reduced by socio economic development and reducing the direct interactions of government to people. Automating most of the transactions so there is minimal chances of exceptions. Stern punishment for the people caught and time bound court cases to be completed.

I am optimistic that India will move away from corruption as people are fed up and some stern actions will come over the course of next couple of decades.

Privatization can't eradicate corruption from the society but as far as I think corruption can be reduced to a very great extent by empowering the private institutions to take up the lift in many government organization. There can be few exceptions were private institutions like SATYAM Comp. Have put India down.

People are appointed in private sectors after a very hard work and talent and seldom they'll try to lose their job by involving themselves into corruption. We have seen people who are not even 10th passed have topped to get the seats in parliament and legislatures. But private sectors are talent, job skill and work oriented, means their employees are well educated and decent enough to know the economic and other challenges our country have been facing in this era. So they won't involve themselves such kind of business if they have a little respect or moral for the society they are living in.

Privatization is managerial approach that has attracted the many people like academics, politicians government employees. Privatization can only improve the quality of service. I strongly believe that corruption is nothing to do privatization.

I strongly believe that corruption is nothing to do with privatization.

Corruption is not all about taking money and doing things illegally.

Rather it is doing things against policy.

Privatization can only improve quality of service and hence leading to gain of customers confidence.

Pressurizing employees to stay late, working in shifts, help team, targets,

Buttering, taking ahead wrong people ahead, appraisals, etc are kind of private corruption in an organization.

Say if you privatize the irctc.com, it will definitely gonna help indians in many ways but on the other hand it will add more bugs to fare.

People can bear the best services at the cost of money. Recruitment process, reward process, support functionality will have a different measure.

Where private organizations are effective.

Corruption in privatization are much painful than any other forms that government official do.

The suggestion is to give regular trainings, feedback system and the system transparency, internal exams, promotional exams, to government officials.

Privatization is not the solution of corruption, corruption is problem of mentality of human. I believe that privatization will lead India to Developed country, because in private sector's employees do effective job and done the task on the time.

So I don't believe that privatization leads the country to less corruption, corruption will still there but in the other form. In the present money goes to the hand of government employee and after privatization it will go to the organization and the government employees on the higher post that's only the difference that will appear.

If we want to remove corruption from our country, we have to change our mentality. We have to do our jobs sincerely.

Thank You!

Privatization is no promise to decrease corruption in a developing country like ours. But what it does promise is convenience to the modern middle class Indian who is working his heart out day and night to provide his family with a good standard of living and a decent education at an added cost, no less. The robust ethical practices adopted by private companies to ensure proper growth makes sure of timely completion of any project (in which a government agency might take too much time due to negligence etc.).

Implementation of models like the Public-Private partnership (PPP) is a great step towards the privatization in important and time sensitive sectors like infrastructure.

As far as corruption is concerned, we can never rule out the possibility of its existence in tenders allocation and other initial stages but private participation would definitely reduce its effects in the overall development of the projects.

Hi friends, Privatization is not the solution for acquiring good services. Satyam is an example. System is not guilty people who run that system is guilty. So we don't more concentrate towards privatization. We should try to change the bad mentality of human. Peoples think doing government job is more secure than private job because we can do job according to ourself. None will force to do work. For overcoming to that government employee mentality in every organization should have a CCTV camera installed. So that Seniors always keep their eyes on them. And government should give good incentive for doing more work aspected too. We should try to change our system passing through lokpal bill and makes control over high profile person (like ministers).

Privatization will lead to less corruption because every work done on the finishing date. But government sectors not done they work, he aim only how did earn money, so he do not concentration in him work, private sectors have how did earn money, but they finished all work. So privatization only less corruption.

Hi Friends,

I believe privatization cannot be compared with corruption. Privatization will only lead to price hike of commodities in return rise in inflation. There are several government offices now wherein CCTV has been installed to track the culprits. It totally depends on powers the person is having. Every problem has its root & cause. Instead of converting the firms into privatized sector we need to give pressure on education system to include the a topic on politics though people don't find it interesting but at least people will come to know about the system. For eg : Passport office has been part privatized but after privatization fees for making passport has also been increased. One more thing adding to above, Government have to see to it that every policies introduced are implemented properly. This can be done by making a special community for keeping a track on policies implementation.

Thanks,

I totally disagree with this statement. Whether its private or government organisation none can help to remove corruption because people are mean and the corruption lies in their mind, they only see money and nothing else matters to them. As everyone knows the highest amount of corrupted people are politicians, they support others too in this corruption process, we can't deal with them although we want to. We cannot trust them and say so if government changes how can this be sure that the new one's are not corrupted. In my opinion if we want to reduce corruption it can't be removed in current we will have to change India's laws first. The only way to reduce or we can say remove corruption in future is that we will have to encourage moral values or education in various schools, colleges and business institutions so that we can have good human resources in future.
