Biggest problem in India - CORRUPTION

Most of the World thinks that the Population is the biggest problem in India but I tend to differ on it. In my mind the biggest problem that Indian needs to deal with is 'the corruption'. This has to start from Bottom to Top and Top to Bottom, simply means at all levels.

Corruption has crossed its all levels and we are considered among the most corrupt nation in the World. Lets starts from the top, the Politicians who are the leaders of this Country seems to be corrupted and once the politicians are looking for their own benefit who will look after the people.
So first ones who should be blamed for this problem is our leaders. Leaders are suppose to lead us out of the mess of corruption but here they are, the ones who are leading the ways into a mess and people are following them...The corruption is dragging us down, my dad says that India is a country is relying on only 10% of government officials who are really working their day to day job, rest of the 90% are enjoying their monthly checks and bribe money to spend their vacation days in office.Using their position/power to receive bribes and sell the power to whom those have money to buy. The lowest level I've seen the corruption is that peon of the office will ask money just to let you know or to meet the officer, an electrician will come to you asking to alter your electricity meter so that you can enjoy free electricity for few rupees as one time charge, you can get a motor vehicle license without even going to a Motor Vehicle dept(RTO). No need for the road test, you don't even have to show your face, and here is our government handing over the license to kill.

What is more shameful is that above things that I just mentioned is a widely known fact and most of us have seen or gone through it in a day to day life in India...

So considering these things I do not think we are going to led by our politician to get out of this mess. Everyone of us have to contribute their fair share, only thing that you have to say is that "No! to bribes". If this trend is continued this will make a world of a difference because we have Biggest power that is 'Population'. We can make a BIGGEST VOICE on this face of earth. Hence I usually differ that Population is a big problem of India right now because if I look at the other side of coin (wrt to Population) I see a lot of benefits but it does not mean that I do not want us to control the population, we have to look at those things as well but in terms of priorities and the impact that we can generate - Lets focus and FIGHT CORRUPTION. This will give us immediate results. Say "No!!! to Bribes"

Advantages of fighting corruption is more than I can even jott it down but some of them are
  • Improved Indian Economy at all levels
  • Faster Work progress
  • Less stress to everyone - happy community
  • Improved infrastructure
  • Safer community
  • Healthy community
I think government can start corruption crack down office as business and will reach break even point in couple of days if they do not get corrupted themselves. :)
