between the officials, politicians and criminals who are making this country weak and
so weak. India got independence in 1947 and it was slowly becoming strong and
developing but in the mid way the disease of corruption started and stop India to grow
ahead. In India there has been a trend of give and take means give some money in
order to get your work done whether in the government offices or private sectors
offices. And now the condition is getting worse and worse, as earlier, the money was
paid for getting wrong works done or only work to be done, but currently money is
paid for getting works done in right ways and at right time. Even after paying
complete money according to the demand, there is no full chance of getting things
done at time and in right way.

job, government offices, nothing is left of corruption. Everything has become a
business and the source of earning money in wrong way. Educational institutions are
also involved in the corruption and they give seat to those students only who have
paid for, whether they are good students with good marks or not. Very weak students
are given admission in the top colleges and universities only on the basis of money
paid for wrong admission and the topper student with good marks and lack of money
gets back in the life or take admission in any simple college.
Now-a-days, private sectors companies are so good in comparison to the
governmental jobs. Private companies are giving job on the basis of candidates skills,
ability, technical knowledge, good percentage of marks and all the educational
records. However, it has become tough to get job in the government offices as they
need lots of bribe to give any type of job (high level or low level) like teaching, clerk,
babu, nurse, doctor, sweeper, etc. And the amount of bribe increases in the market as
the level of job increase like IAS, PCC, police, etc ranks jobs.
