Speech On Corruption Of India

India has a major problem with corruption. In the book The White Tiger, we see this problem throughout Balram’s life. The first time we are exposed to corruption is when Balram is just a young boy living in his village that is in the “darkness” of India. His village of Laxmangarh is in the darkness of India and is run by four landlords that use intimidation and scare tactics to collect an unfair amount of money from their tenants.(pg. 21-22) Another place you see corruption in The White Tiger is when Balram is working for Ashok and his family. Their family has to pay the government bribes to keep from being prosecuted for illegally stealing coal, and evading taxes.(pg.233) Imagine if we lived in a country where if you paid the national government

Throughout history positions of power and wealth have been plagued by corruption, does this power cause people to be corrupt? Or is the power and wealth earned through immoral and corrupt practices? In order to find these answers, one must define what they feel is corrupt, for most corruption is the act of being dishonest or immoral with the motive of personal gains of money or power. There are numerous accounts of politicians, military leaders, business owners, entrepreneurs, and millionaires, all earning or using their power and wealth in an immoral and corrupt manner. Whether money is used for personal gain, used to corrupt others, or the wealth was earned by corrupt ways, it seems that the accumulation of wealth is constantly accompanied by corruption.

First, it is important to define what corruption is. The term, “corruption” covers a broad range of human actions,

India’s domestic business has seen high levels of corruption; more commonly the fraudulent behaviours and bribery of government officials and civil servants. This creates an unlevel playing field between domestic business and foreign business. Evidently this seemingly small issue of corruption could potentially tarnish India’s position as favoured destination of foreign investment (Mendiolaza, 2012).

“Corruption is the enemy of development, and of good governance. It must be gotten rid of.” (Patil), this quote was said by Pratibha Patil, the president of India from 2007-2012 and the only women that ever held the office. This quote of corruption impeding both development of a country and a strong government can be witnessed in William Shakespeare’s play, Hamlet. In Hamlet many of the most powerful political figures allow their greed and personal agendas lead them to corruption; this started with Claudius’ hunger for power and lust and ended with the death of all primary characters except for the caring Horatio.

In China, corruption is so apparent that often people are disincentivized to owning businesses because permits and consultants cost too much and require bribes. Yet, bribes can cost the economy big money because essentially the corrupt businessmen are taking the money away from public services (111). The issues coming up in the future are that the governments that are corrupt might have negative impacts on other global economies and spread the norm of corruption. Yet, both countries do show the will to “purify the Party” which includes newly implemented rules against gluttony, adultery, and even playing golf under the leadership of Wang Qishan (113). In China a bigger issue is also the fact that the public is becoming increasingly involved in corruption scandals. Officials worry people will get carried away with excessive accusations (115). More issues stem from the type of political system that China has; they employ a nominal legal system that runs at the discretion of the Party leadership so this means that whoever is in power can change the entire political ideals. In India, they are based on a historical British political system with anticorruption laws but these laws are often not enforced. Yet, even when they are enforced, trials in case can last for up to a decade (116). In India, they are making moves to help out their corruption issues. They implemented the Aadhaar program

The corruptin is the abusive and inefficient use of resources by trusted powers for private gain. Corruption is not committed to the rule of law, justice, human rights and the integrity of public service, and it hurts every one who's life, livelihood, or happiness depends on the integrity of people in a position of authority.Some times it's devastating impact is more visible . The governance ,transparency ,and fighting corruption is so important to sustaine economic growth.

Corruption and money go hand in hand. Money is a motivating factor for corruption, and the transfer of money or other special benefits often finances corruption.

Before the 1990’s, the conventional belief was that corruption in developing countries was practically inevitable and in some cases even desirable. However, a more in-depth investigation into this issue suggests that bribery and corruption can cause significant problems for all parties involved. For example, for suppliers of bribes such as corporations, it can cause many uncertainties since the quality and the price of their products are not the only factors considered in the transaction (Hamra, 2000). Therefore, corporations are not usually

Corruption is moving in every sector of administrative and social function like a circle in the country. It can be said that corruption is in part of our daily life like having lunch. (Sabharwal, 2013).

Custom is very popular when it’s come to corruption, is their have a solution to lessen the corruption in our country or can corruption will avoid and not become a hobbies of every person that have a opportunity to do this crime. All country experience the corruption, but how we overcome it? Why many people think that the Custom is corrupted? What are the effect of corruption in our country. Do you think they have a solution to lose the corruption? How to avoid corruption in our country? Are you experience a corruption. Why custom is notorious for corruption.? And how Custom important in our country?

Political corruption has existed throughout the ages. It believed to be most prominent in positions of power, because of the role money plays in getting people power. However, over the centuries, corruption has changed so much so as to not match a particular definition of corruption, perpetually growing deceptively harder to find (Ebbe).

Corruption is a complex political, social, and economic anomaly that negatively affects developing and developed countries. It weakens democratic institutions, holds economic development, widening the rich-poor gap and certainly leads to governmental instability. The World Bank definition of corruption states that “…the abuse of public office for private gain”.

India has an incredible amount of instability and corruption in politics. India has two main political parties- Indian National Congress and the Bhartiya Janata Party (BJP). These two are the major parts of the Parliament government. Currently, there is a vast amount of corruption involving major issues like elections, railways, customs, revenue collection, etc. An example of political instability relating to corruption is the Hawala Bribery Scandal in 1990. The Hawala Scandal involved over 115 top politicians in India including the Prime Minister, Union Ministers, Leader of Opposition, members of Congress, etc. The politicians were allegedly receiving payments from four brothers who were brokers of the Hawala companies, which amounted to upwards of US$18 million. The case and investigation started with the arrest of two militants in 1991. One by One, the cases of Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) were getting thrown out. Evidence was counted as inadmissible and most politicians got off scot free. After the cases were dropped, it became public in a sworn testimony that the judge for the cases was made to make it all go away. It included three top political parties and everyone involved was a much involved as the next. This scandal rocked the country as their democracy lost trust and loyalty from the people.

The World Bank defines corruption as the abuse of public power for private benefit (Worldbank, 1997). The Animal Husbandry Scam a.k.a the Fodder Scam, is a clear example of this definition. The case in question is a consequence of the incessant greed of politicians' for money and power. It is reported that about Rs. 950 crore were embezzled from the government treasuries of Bihar in this 17 year long case (Indian Express, 2014). Despite being the third most populated state of the country and
