INTRODUCTION
The term “corruption” refers to the misuse of resources or power for private gain.
Transparency International defines corruption as the abuse of entrusted power for
private gain”
1 The UN Convention Against Corruption (UNCAC) does not prescribe a single
definition.
Corruption takes various forms. Table 2 outlines the most common categories.
Political corruption and bureaucratic corruption are related. There is evidence that
corruption at the top of a bureaucracy increases corruption at lower levels
Corruption is closely linked to the generation of economic rents and rent-seeking.
This refers to actors securing above-normal returns from an asset – not by adding
value to it through investment but rather through manipulating the social and
political environment. The establishment of a monopoly is a classic example of this.
The asset then becomes inherently more valuable. Rent-seeking involves corruption
whereby the payment of bribes is necessary to manipulate the environment so as to
benefit a particular actor.
2 There are particular challenges related to the measurement of corruption. This
owes to the clandestine nature of corruption and the reliance of corruption
measures on perception-based data, which themselves are determined by
understandings of corruption that vary across countries and societies.
REVIEW OF LITERATURE
The pressure is on, and, for many employees, that means performing

Data collection method: we used an online survey for this and we approached them
through whatsapp and email and we did follow up each day for 15 days.
Data Analysis method: we used google forms to analysis the response and the google

1. Corruption is not only about bribes: People especially the poor get hurt when
resources are wasted. That’s why it is so important to understand the different kinds
of corruption to develop smart responses.
2. Power of the people: Create pathways that give citizens relevant tools to engage
and participate in their governments – identify priorities, problems and find
solutions.
3. Cut the red tape: Bring together formal and informal processes (this means
working with the government as well as non-governmental groups) to change
behavior and monitor progress.
4. It’s not 1999: Use the power of technology to build dynamic and continuous
exchanges between key stakeholders: government, citizens, business, civil society
groups, media, academia etc.
5. Deliver the goods: Invest in institutions and policy – sustainable improvement in
how a government delivers services is only possible if the people in these institutions
endorse sensible rules and practices that allow for change while making the best use
of tested traditions and legacies – imported models often do not work.
6. Get incentives right: Align anti-corruption measures with market, behavioral, and
social forces. Adopting integrity standards is a smart business decision, especially for
companies interested in doing business with the World Bank Group and other
development partners.
7. Sanctions matter: Punishing corruption is a vital component of any effective anti-
corruption effort.
8. Act globally and locally: Keep citizens engaged on corruption at local, national,
international and global levels – in line with the scale and scope of corruption. Make
use of the architecture that has been developed and the platforms that exist for
engagement.
9. Build capacity for those who need it most: Countries that suffer from chronic
fragility, conflict and violence– are often the ones that have the fewest internal
resources to combat corruption. Identify ways to leverage international resources to
support and sustain good governance.
10. Learn by doing: Any good strategy must be continually monitored and
evaluated to make sure it can be easily adapted as situations on the ground
change.
CONCUSION
Corruption is an intractable problem. It is like diabetes, can only be controlled, but not
totally eliminated. It may not be possible to root out corruption completely at all
levels but it is possible to contain it within tolerable limits. Honest and dedicated
persons in public life, control over electoral expenses could be the most important
prescriptions to combat corruption. Corruption has a corrosive impact on our
economy. It worsens our image in international market and leads to loss of overseas
opportunities. Corruption is a global problem that all countries of the world have to
confront, solutions, however, can only be home grown. We used the sentence "we
the common man are the solution" because we are the only reason why
corruption is so popular.
