What is corruption?
Corruption means any abuse of a position of trust in
order to gain an undue advantage. This involves the conduct
of both
sides that of the person who abuses his position of trust as
well as that of the person who seeks to gain an undue
advantage by this abuse. Corruption can occur in relation to
officials as well as between private persons.
5
Corruption happens in the shadows, often with the help of
professional enablers such as bankers, lawyers, accountants.

Causes of corruption
Lack of Transparency: -
A lack of transparency in government processes, decision-making,
and public administration provides fertile ground for corrupt practices.
When actions and decisions are shielded from public scrutiny, officials may
engage in corrupt activities with reduced fear of exposure.
7
Low Salaries and Incentives:
Public officials, especially those in lower-ranking positions, are
sometimes paid low salaries. This can make them more susceptible
to bribery and other corrupt practices, as they may see corruption
as a means to supplement their income.
Political Interference:
Political interference in administrative matters can compromise
the autonomy of government institutions. Political leaders may pressure
officials to engage in corrupt activities for personal or party gain.
Social Inequality:
Social and economic disparities can contribute to corruption, as
individuals with wealth and power may use their influence to secure
preferential treatment and engage in corrupt practices without
repercussions.

Conclusion
From the above description we can say that corruption spreads all over
India under the root. Although it is not possible to combat the corruption fully,
but still Indian Government had taken many actions to control corruption in
India. We can see the efforts of Government of India in the form of Corruption
Index, which regularly controlled from the last few years. Now corruption is a
habit in India. From top to bottom, mostly all the officials in the government
sector, make them habit that they do not do any work without bribe, gift or
some kind.

Corruption, as we know is the criminal thing that do by a person in a
certain capacity especially with negative connotation, they do the illegal thing
to make a benefit for them self. Black money has created a big black hole in
Indian economy & the entire burden is beard by the common people of India.
To stop corruption which creates black money, we the people of India have to
come forward to fight against corruption.
So, corruption is an illegal thing that we couldn’t do, because, without
corruption we can be a good generation for our country. And then we can
make our country clear from corruption and make our country better.
