Whether it is any person in the society, a government employee or a political leader, the field of education - corruption has made its home everywhere. Today, corruption has increased in India in such a way that sometimes there is no work without corruption.
In a developing and democratic country like India, corruption is a great irony. Our national character seems to be tarnishing, which is nothing short of throwing mud at our country. Our moral standard has fallen so much that we don't even think about other people at all.
Our country was known for truth, non-violence, hard work, modesty, and cultural values, but today all these things are not seen in 21st century India. Because of which our country is losing its original image somewhere. Corruption cancer is destroying the health of our country. It also poses a bigger threat than terrorism.
If we have to eliminate corruption from the root, then the politicians, government system and the people will have to fight together against it only then we can save our country from this demon like corruption.
