Why India faces huge corruption?
Why India faces huge corruption?
• Colonial Legacy of unchallenged authority and abritary use of power
• Asymmetry of power. Reduces societal pressure to conform to ethical behavior
• Conscious choice of our economic policies which put citizen at the mercy of state – Monopoly – Corruption.
• Over Centralization – Power is exercised more remotely – increasing the distance between authority and accountability.
• Lack of Empowerment of citizens to hold those in authority.
• Enforcement of rule of law, to ensure compliance.
• Quality of Politics. If politics attracts and rewards men of integrity and honesty then corruption would be reduced, rather if if becomes a spot of attraction for undesirable and corrupt elements then Corruption become a norm.
