Corruption is widespread in India and negatively impacts politics, government administration, and the judiciary. In politics, nearly a fourth of Indian parliament members face criminal charges. Government officials often steal public funds and resources, and corruption in hospitals inhibits access to medicines and doctors. The judicial system also suffers from delays, shortage of judges, and corruption. Several major corruption scandals have involved politicians mishandling public funds and assets for personal gain. Overall, corruption remains entrenched in Indian society.
