Kill Corruption
Wednesday, January 23, 2013
Corruption means dishonesty by those in power, typically involving bribery. When an elected representative misuses his powers or changes his decision due to certain unfair circumstances it is referred to as corruption. A person who receives or gives bribe is said to be a corrupt person. For example, if a police officer accepts money, he is said to be corrupt. Although we say that India is a democratic country which got freedom 64 years ago, but we are still not free from the hands of corruption. The only difference is that the British have been replaced by the corrupt rulers. Now a days, corruption rules us. Corruption is damaging the economy of India badly. The major problem in India for its present state is corruption. We often blame the government when we see unhygienic circumstances but that is not true. The government is sanctioning financial aids to improve our country but it is not reaching the people because some corrupt officers are swindling it. Everyday, in the newspaper we see different scandals and scams. The government has passed several laws but none of them are being executed because of some corrupt officials who have been appointed by the government to ensure that the relief reaches the needy people. If the care takers themselves are corrupt then India can never progress. Corruption is caused by fear, the fear of losing power. People want to come into power these days not to serve the country or its people but to make themselves rich. The new name for politics is corruption .To earn high positions in the constitution they bribe the common people by making false promises at the time of election and on coming into position they change their goals and forget their promises.
Corruption has become a form of cancer and has started spreading like a epidemic.
In 2012 India has ranked 94th out of 176 countries in the Transparency International's Corruption Perceptions Index.
Some true patriots of the country like Anna Hazare, Dr.Kiran Bedi etc. are trying to fight and kill corruption but are yet to achieve 100% success. Have you ever imagined if one person all by himself can get the Lokpall Bill passed at this age, then if we all unite there is nothing which we cannot achieve.
If we all unite we can kill the major problem i.e. Corruption.
It is very truly said that “Unity Is Strength”
My idea to fight corruption
1) We should all follow Anna Hazare and support him in this noble cause.
2) We should not offer bribe nor should we receive bribe.
3) If we find anyone offering or receiving bribe we should immediately inform the police.
4) Educate the people so that they can choose their right representatives at the time of elections.
5) Try and achieve 100% literacy in India.
6) Lokpal bill is not the end; it is just a new beginning of justice and a warning to the corrupt people.
7) All of us should follow the path of honesty and the youth should play the lead role.
8) Corrupt people should be punished severely.
9) Constant income tax raids and investigations on assets must be done.
Nowadays if you want to seek admissions in good colleges you need to pay donations, what is donation nothing but an other name of corruption. Merit has lost its value. Today there is hardly any field which is not affected by corruption. Even a child is familiar with this word.
Corruption sounds difficult to control but if we all unite we can kill corruption very soon and live in a better India. Think of it and act immediately.
