Yes, privatization is known for less corruption and productive corporate area. Because there is no job security for the person you have to always hold your positiveness about the work you also be maintain good public interaction.
But however any government sector should not be privatized. It will be better if they create some rule like private sector, like job insecurity. Job insecurity is very much require for industrial growth.

It is practically a very feasible solution of reducing corruption to the lower level. Let's not talk about privatization, PPP or other things such as motives of the private organization, it is a different topic to debate. We are here to discuss the impact of privatization on corruption and I feel most of the people are deviating from the topic.
According to me, privatization will drastically reduce the corruption in India. We all are aware of the situation in government offices like PWD, Education department, Police Stations, Hospitals, RTO etc. The situation is so worse that nothing can be done in formal ways and according to the procedures, we have to bribe agents, officers etc. No work can be done without bribing, your file cannot move to even one level higher if you won't pay bribes. The situation is pathetic.
Every law, rule, regulations, the machinery of government have failed to remove corruption because it is itself corrupt partially. Let's analyze the situation of private firms, for example, ICICI Bank, you go there with a problem, it will be dealt within a minute, on the other hand, see the working of nationalized banks.
The USA and other developed economies have used the privatization as a tool to eradicate corruption and optimize their work culture, we are very much aware of this. These economies are successful in placing a well settled and corruption free system while keeping their citizens on priority.
Hence it is proved that Privatization will lead to less corruption.

According to me, somewhere our youth is also contributing to the corruption for ex we are giving bribe to traffic police when he catch us from breaking the rule.
For education even we use the approach of our parents and other relatives to get admission in govt cllges or highly reputated institutes without seeing our eligiblity.

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!

I'm agree with the statement that privatisation lead to less corruption but we have to think from a broader perspective that corruption is not done because in India most of the sectors were public but mentality the Indians does have like tolerance for corruption, We should not talk or divert from the topic like privatisation lead to less corruption rather we have to ask ourselves and our politician what can be done to eradicate corruption from our society following steps can be taken to eradicate like.
1. Zero tolerance for corrupt people.
2. Strict rules and regulation.
3. Rules and regulation should be simplified so that there should be no confusion about its implementation. Like if we go for driving license the procedure for the same is so complicated and cumbersome that even educated people don't want to go through this procedure. Why a such complicated procedure for such a small thing.
4. Why govt is ruling our country because to do the development of country if govt cannot do and giving the development work to private companies than what is the role of the govt.
4. Incentives of politician and govt employees should be tied with the quality and speed of work. And more accountability is need to be set.
5. Education system should need to be improve.
Privatisation has its own benefits and disadvantages but People do corruption because we allow them to do.

Privatization will help in removing corruption but at the same time it is not suited for every sector. Government owned sectors work for the welfare of people and also bring revenue for the government to function properly.
I think if government imposes strict rules and give punishment to the one accused for corruption the instances of corruption will reduce. Here is an example, Delhi chief minister Mr. Kejriwal encouraged people to post videos or voice recordings when police took bribes from them so that they can stop these malpractice.
Many policemen were accused and punished as a result they are now afraid and do there work properly. So, I believe if people and government work together we can make India corruption free.

Mainly Corruption takes place between the person who want's the work to be accomplished easily and the person who will look for short cut ways to earn money.
These type of people cannot be found on private corporations, because these companies will hire the persons who work hard and these companies provide good benefits to these type of people with good salaries and promotions. So these employees will not look for the alternatives to earn money.
But if you consider govt employees. The salaries provided to them will be fixed and so these people will look for alternatives to earn money and this leads to corruption.

Hello friends,
I think privatization will lead to lesser corruption, though it will not abolish it completely. If you look at the government organizations, everyone is ready to work once you agree to pay bribe, otherwise your work will be kept pending asking for completion of formalities.
But in private organizations, producing better results is always a aim, so the higher level keeps a check whether you are doing your work properly or not. The same is not there in government sector.

Privatisation will not lead to less corruption. Human will be human, Whether it is government sector or private sector and greed of human is never ending. A person can create corruption anywhere it is not about the place, it is about persons moral values. For eg in a private institute teachers are not giving proper lectures and notes to the student, which lead students to join coachings necessarily and they join coaching classes of those teachers only who are teaching in schools and colleges, because they give proper notes and lectures at coaching classes and even then they support the students at colleges and schools and give good marks in practical exams. So, indirectly they are asking students to join their classes. In this way, corruption is caused in private institutes.
Secondly, a few days back I read a news, in BSc and BE students have to submit working project so students were forced by one of their professors to take a project from him only and pay him 1800 Rs otherwise he will fail them in the exam. Later on during viva session, external checked their projects and found all project are similar and on asking questions to students they were not able to answer them, on pressuring them to know from where did they get the project they told that our professor forced us to pay him for the project and take that project. So in this way students are not learning anything they are just spoiling there future just because of such corrupted faculties.

Friends, I will give you a much better question for question.
Do you think private companies pay bribes to the government for benefits in policies?
I think yes they do.
It is the answer to your question that privatisation is not the solution, it is just running away from responsibility.
Improving mentality as everybody says is the solution, not privatisation. Yes, privatisation has many advantages and disadvantages. But I can, t count corruption in either of them.
