There has been a lot of talking about corruption in India. Wherein, no file will be moved forward without this infamously well known word called 'bribe'. So what impact does it have on the progress of the country?
This is an issue in India which is been prevailing from a very long time. There is a common saying that the entire system in India is completely submerged in corruption. Yes, this is the fact that everybody accepts. But how can a country like India which is rich in its values, beliefs and culture take a drastic drift toward the unwanted.
Who should be blamed for this? The politicians, bureaucrats, industrialists, businessmen or the common people. The answer is all of the above.
Corruption is a fraudulent conduct by those in power. This spells out that a person who is very powerful abuses the power and heads to acquire everything.
Why is it like this? It is because the people are not given proper education and awareness. Money has become the only thing which is valued more than a human life. When people are not aware of what is legal and what is not, things cannot be put back on track.

Getting the job done, either by hook or crook is what the attitude is prevailing in these days. When an individual develops this kind of an attitude it is disastrous. This has resulted in various forms or types of corruption such as bribery, fudging, manipulation, falsification and so on. A person becomes desperate for getting the jobs done and at the other side is also a sign of desperation of acceptance which leads to all types of corruption.
These types of corruption is directly proportional to the greediness of an individual. When the wants and needs are not at all satisfying an individual, he tends to involve himself in these kinds of acts. The other reason could be of pressure. A person at the power orders his subordinates to yield for something which is not ethical. The subordinate has to accept the order, or else he would be threatened to death.
This will have an negative impact on the progress of the country. For the progression to happen, India today needs people who value a life more than money.
Now if we take a discussion on bribery or people giving bribes and taking bribes ,for this tie frame or the tie line ,we must go back to the pre independence days ,when the first of the zamindars and the the kings of small colonies sated accepting bribes from the governour generals ,for giving our soil to them fro trading and many other uses,this habit was very young at that stage ,but was allowed to grow so fast that now it has become a immortal monster.
the simple point is that if we have to end corruption the change has to come from within ,not from politicians who say that they have all the black money accounts in their finger tips and they would never want to reveal it.
We think the corruption in real estate and other government related procedures can be reduced if the processes get standardized,and we feel it is possible only if the lawmakers don't become law breakers and also the people ,will have to take that sincere responsibility to pay that ticket ,when they get caught for over speeding or any other traffic violation.These are the small steps with which we can start and it will end up as a good snowball effect and erase this monster forever.
