Corruption is similar to disease it cannot be completely cured but its effectiveness can be reduced by taking preventive measures. Both people and government should be loyal and has to follow transparency. The Democracy is for the people, by the people and of the people but instead for the people it is working for the money. For the money, by the money and of the money. The money should be used for the welfare of the people and not for the disintegration of the people’s life. Increase in price of the commodities makes the basement of the corruption. It persuades a man to go in unlawful track. Toady being rich is much essential than being honest. The condition has to be changed immediately. If it is accepted by each and every citizen of India then there will be big revolution which gives us a corruption a free India. Moreover severe penalties can be implemented it only hurts the person and it will not rectify the person’s mistake. They have to realize their mistake that is the only remedy to the dangerous disease as we called as “CORRUPTION”.
