CORRUPTION- AN EVIL OF THE INDIAN SOCIETY Sarath Thomas
Corruption takes many forms and occurs at different levels of government and society. In India, petty corruption is common in interactions with public servants, while grand corruption usually involves high-level government officials. Some common forms of corruption in India include bribery in social welfare programs and tax evasion which funds black money. Despite anti-corruption laws and agencies, corruption remains a major issue due to factors such as bureaucratic red tape, lack of transparency, and low accountability. Increased use of right to information laws and computerization of services has helped reduce corruption but more still needs to be done.
The document discusses the issue of corruption in India and what constitutes good governance. It notes that India has been involved in several major corruption scandals over the years totaling over $27 billion, and surveys have found India to be one of the most corrupt countries. Good governance is defined as having democratic decentralization, basic infrastructure development, safety, efficient government, reduced inequality, and citizen-centric services. However, corruption negatively impacts all of these and leads to lower investment, economic growth, and development. The document advocates for empowering citizens through initiatives like right to information laws and e-governance to increase transparency and accountability in decision making. It also calls for the youth to take a stand against corruption.

This document summarizes the findings of an empirical survey conducted by students at Symbiosis Law School, Pune on anti-corruption laws in India. Some key findings from the survey include:
- Over half of respondents believe corruption has increased a lot in India. Political parties were seen as the most corrupt institution while the judiciary was seen as the least corrupt.
- The main reasons for corruption cited were weak institutions/lack of control and greed/ostentatious living. Many respondents also believe the common person bargains and expects to pay bribes.
- Around 40% of respondents encounter corruption as victims or witnesses. The estimated losses to the Indian economy due to reported corruption cases from 2011
The document provides an overview of parallel or black market economies, their origin and size. It discusses that parallel economies exist due to factors like high tax rates, complicated tax systems, lack of trust in governments, and corruption. The black market includes illegal trade of goods and services like arms, drugs, currency exchange, and copyrighted media. Estimates suggest the global black market economy is worth $2-5% of worldwide GDP. Corruption also contributes significantly to the parallel economy in many countries like India.
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.

Corruption exists in many forms across both the public and private sectors in India. It is widespread in government offices, politics, healthcare, education, and public works projects. Common types of corruption include bribery, nepotism, skimming of public funds, and abuse of power for private gain. This corruption has significant negative effects, including poor services, unequal treatment, reduced investment and growth, and lack of trust in government. Several efforts have been made to reduce corruption in India, but it remains a persistent and complex issue.
This document summarizes the key findings of research conducted by Transparency International on anti-corruption efforts in six South Asian countries. It finds that while countries have passed some anti-corruption laws, political interference and lack of independence weaken enforcement. Citizens face challenges accessing information and there is little whistleblower protection. As a result, corruption is increasing and accountability is lacking. The report calls for strengthening rights to information, whistleblower protection, and the independence of anti-corruption agencies and judiciaries.
India is a fast developing country in the world where our systems are weak. So there is always a chance of corruption. Who is responsible for this? What action should be taken? What we must keep in the mind is “Nothing is impossible”. If we join our hands together there can be an end to this deep rooted evil. The only thing is it takes time. A little progress everyday leads to a big result one day ……… may be tomorrow. Be GOOD and DO GOOD
This document discusses corruption in India on multiple levels. It begins by summarizing India's constitution and founding principles of justice, liberty, equality and fraternity. It then discusses both India's achievements and ongoing problems like unemployment, illiteracy and poverty exacerbated by population growth. It notes a "pathetic contempt of rule of law and ethics in public life." The document also examines corruption indexes, definitions and typologies of corruption, as well as examples of recent corruption scandals in India. It discusses the role of groups like the CVC, CBI and proposed Lokpal in addressing corruption. Overall, the document provides a wide-ranging overview of corruption challenges in India from different perspectives.
Corruption is widespread in the Philippines and takes many forms, from petty bribery to grand corruption among political leaders. All levels of government are affected, and political parties and elections are especially prone to corruption due to their high costs and patronage-based nature. In response, the country has implemented anti-corruption laws and institutions, and civil society actively works to address corruption. However, entrenched cronyism continues to undermine reform efforts. International donors also support capacity building for anti-corruption in the Philippines.

3. As with many developing nations, corruption
is widespread in India. India is ranked 84 out
of a 180 countries in Transparency
International's Corruption Perceptions Index,
although its score has improved consistently
from 2.7 in 2002 to 3.4 in 2008 (Although this
may be due to the change in polling that the
survey has undergone). Corruption has taken
the role of a pervasive aspect of Indian
politics and bureaucracy.
4. History
The economy of India was under socialist-inspired
policies for an entire generation from the 1950s until
the 1980s. The economy was subject to extensive
regulation, protectionism, and public ownership,
leading to pervasive corruption and slow growth.
License Raj was often at the core of corruption.
The Vohra Report was submitted by the former Indian
Union Home Secretary, N.N. Vohra, in October 1993.
It studied the problem of the criminalisation of politics
and of the nexus among criminals, politicians and
bureaucrats in India.
5. The report contained several observations
made by official agencies on the criminal
network which was virtually running a parallel
government. It also discussed criminal
gangs who enjoyed the patronage of
politicians, of all parties, and the protection of
government functionaries. It revealed that
political leaders had become the leaders of
gangs. They were connected to the military.
Over the years criminals had been elected to
local bodies, State Assemblies and
Parliament. The unpublished annexures to the
Vohra Report were believed to contain highly
explosive material.
6. According to Jitendra Singh, "in the bad old days, particularly
pre-1991, when the License Raj held sway, and by design, all
kinds of free market mechanisms were hobbled or stymied, and
corruption emerged almost as an illegitimate price mechanism, a
shadowy quasi-market, such that scarce resources could still be
allocated within the economy, and decisions could get made.
These were largely distortions created by the politico-economic
regime. While a sea change has occurred in the years following
1991, some of the distorted cultural norms that took hold during
the earlier period are slowly being repaired by the sheer forces of
competition. The process will be long and slow, however. It will not
change overnight." One of the major problems and obstacles to
development that many developing countries face is corruption by
greedy, power-hungry politicians, which is endemic in certain parts
of the world.
9. Extent of corruption in Indian states, as measured in a 2005
study by Transparency International India.
As per Transparency International India, "India Corruption Study
2005", Kerala is the least corrupt State in India. Bihar, on the
other hand, is the most corrupt State. Jammu & Kashmir ranks
next to Bihar. Himachal Pradesh followed by Gujarat is ranked
second IRILMM’s Digest of Readings on Vigilance & Ethics in
Public Procurements 4 and third respectively after Kerala. This
study was carried across eleven public services.
Kerala was found least corrupt in all these services. Himachal
Pradesh was found less corrupt. In Gujarat services such as
education, judiciary and land administration was ranked as more
corrupt compared to other states. However in other services,
Gujarat ranked better.
10. Some people in India strongly believe that the root of corruption lies at the higher levels,
and that the major conspirators have to be punished first.
11.
12. Criminalization of Indian politics is a problem.
In July 2008 The Washington Post reported that
nearly a fourth of the 540 Indian
Parliament members faced criminal charges,
"including human trafficking, immigration
rackets, embezzlement, rape and even murder". At
state level, things are often worse. In
Uttar Pradesh Assembly elections 2002, candidates
with criminal records won the
majority of seats.
Politics
14. Bureaucracy
A 2005 study done by Transparency International (TI) in India found that
more than 50% of the people had firsthand experience of paying bribe or
peddling influence to get a job done in a public office. Taxes and bribes are
common between state borders; Transparency International estimates that
truckers pay annually $5 billion in bribes. A 2009 survey of the leading
economies of Asia, revealed Indian bureaucracy to be not just least
efficient out of Singapore, Hong Kong, Thailand, South Korea, Japan,
Malaysia, Taiwan, Vietnam, China, Philippines and Indonesia; further it was
also found that working with the India's civil servants was a "slow and
painful" process. Officials often steal state property. In Bihar, more than
80% of the subsidized food aid to poor is stolen.
15. In cities and villages throughout India, Mafia Raj consisting of municipal
and other government officials, elected politicians, judicial officers, real
estate developers and law enforcement officials, acquire, develop and
sell land in illegal ways. Many state-funded construction activities in
India, such as road building, are dominated by construction mafias,
which are groupings of corrupt public works officials, materials
suppliers, politicians and construction contractors. Shoddy construction
and material substitution (e.g. mixing sand in cement while submitting
expenses for cement) result in roads and highways being dangerous,
and sometimes simply washed away when India's heavy monsoon
season arrives.
In Government Hospitals, corruption is associated with non
availability of medicines (or duplicate medicines), getting admission,
consultations with doctors and availing diagnostic services.
17. Judiciary
Corruption is rampant in the judicial system of
India. According to Transparency International,
judicial corruption in India is attributable to factors
such as "delays in the disposal of cases, shortage
of judges and complex procedures, all of which
are exacerbated by a preponderance of new
laws".

19. Police
Despite state prohibitions against torture and custodial
misconduct by the police, torture is widespread in police
custody, which is a major reason behind deaths in
custody. The police often torture innocent people until a
'confession' is obtained to save influential and wealthy
offenders. G.P. Joshi, the programme coordinator of the
Indian branch of the Commonwealth Human Rights
Initiative in New Delhi comments that the main issue at
hand concerning police violence is a lack of accountability
of the police.
20. The chief economic consequences of corruption are the loss to
the, an unhealthy climate for investment and an increase in the
cost of government-subsidised services. The TI India study
estimates the monetary value of petty corruption in 11 basic
services provided by the government, like education,
healthcare, judiciary, police, etc., to be around Rs. 21,068
crores. India still ranks in the bottom quartile of developing
nations in terms of the ease of doing business, and compared
to China and other lower developed Asian nations, the average
time taken to secure the clearances for a start up or to invoke
bankruptcy is much greater.
21. According to Transparency International, Bihar is the
most corrupt state in India.
Magazine said in 2004 that Bihar has become a
byword for the worst of India, of widespread and
inescapable poverty, of corrupt politicians
indistinguishable from mafia dons they patronize,
caste-ridden social order that has retained the worst
feudal cruelties.
22. CORRUPTION
“THE MISUSE OF PUBLIC OFFICE
FOR PERSONAL GAINS”
“AS AN ACT OF BRIBERY
INVOLVING A PUBLIC SERVANT
AND A TRANSFER OF TANGIBLE
RESOURCES”
“CORRUPTION = MONOPOLY +
DISCRETION – ACCOUNTABILITY”
24. Right to Information Act
The Right to Information Act (2005) and equivalent
acts in the states, that require government officials to
furnish information requested by citizens or face
punitive action, computerisation of services and
various central and state government acts that
established vigilance commissions have considerably
reduced corruption or at least have opened up
avenues to redress grievances. The 2006 report by
Transparency International puts India at the 70th
place and states that significant improvements were
made by India in reducing corruption.
25. Computerization
Bhoomi is a project jointly funded by the Government of India
and the Government
of Karnataka to digitize the paper land records and create
a software mechanism to
control changes to the land registry in Karnataka.
The project was designed to eliminate the long-standing
problem of inefficiency and corruption.
