7. INTRODUCTION
As per the Transparency International(TI):
corruption is defined as-
“The misuse of entrusted power for private
gain”

8. It is not easy to define corruption. But
in a narrow sense, corruption is mostly
concerned with bribery and it takes
several forms. Corruption is a global
phenomenon and it is omnipresent.
Corruption has progressively increased
and is now rampant in our society.

9. Corruption is caused as well as increased because of
the change in the value system and ethical qualities of
men who administer. The old ideals of morality, service
and honesty are regarded as an achromatic.
 In a highly inflationary economy, low salaries of
government officials compel them to resort to the road
of corruption. Graduates from IIMs with no experience
draw a far handsome salary than what government
secretaries draw.
Election time is a time when corruption is at its peak
level. Big industrialist fund politicians to meet high cost
of election and ultimately to seek personal favor.
Bribery to politicians buys influence, and bribery by
politicians buys votes. In order to get
elected, politicians bribe poor illiterate people, who are
slogging for two times meal.
