Corruption takes various forms including political, judicial, and police corruption. Political corruption involves elected officials gaining personal benefits through bribes. Judicial corruption occurs when judges receive bribes or show bias in their rulings. Police corruption involves officers accepting bribes in exchange for ignoring illegal activities. Corruption has significant negative consequences for a country like loss of wealth, hindered development, and increased crime and poverty. While India has enacted laws against corruption, it remains a persistent problem and reducing it will require strong enforcement of anti-corruption laws as well as efforts to increase transparency, accountability and civic participation.

TYPES OF CORRUPTION
4. Political Corruption
Political corruption is the abuse of public power, office,
or resources by elected government officials for
personal gain, e.g. by extortion, soliciting or offering
bribes.
It can also take the form of office holders maintaining
themselves in office by purchasing votes by enacting
laws which use taxpayers' money.
Evidence suggests that corruption can have political
consequences- with citizens being asked for bribes
becoming less likely to identify with their country or
region.
5. JUDICIAL CORRUPTION
Judicial corruption refers to corruption related
misconduct of judges, through receiving or giving bribes,
improper sentencing of convicted criminals, bias in the
hearing and judgement of arguments and other such
misconduct.
Governmental corruption of judiciary is broadly known in
many transitional and developing countries because the
budget is almost completely controlled by the executive.
The latter undermines the separation of powers, as it
creates a critical financial dependence of the judiciary.
The proper national wealth distribution including the
government spending on the judiciary is subject of the
constitutional economics.
6. Police Corruption
Police corruption is a specific form of police misconduct
designed to obtain financial benefits, other personal gain,
and/or career advancement for a police officer or
officers in exchange for not pursuing, or selectively
pursuing, an investigation or arrest.
One common form of police corruption is soliciting and/or
accepting bribes in exchange for not reporting organized
drug or prostitution rings or other illegal activities.
Another example is police officers flouting the police
code of conduct in order to secure convictions of
suspects — for example, through the use of falsified
evidence.
7. More rarely, police officers may deliberately and
systematically participate in organized crime
themselves.
In most major cities, there are internal affairs
sections to investigate suspected police corruption
or misconduct. Similar entities include the British
Independent Police Complaints Commission.

The Prevention of Corruption Act came into force in
September 1988. It was an improvisation of the Act of 1947.
Thus if an offence against a public servant is proved in the
court there will be imprisonment of not less than 6 months
upto 5 years and also the person may be fined.
Right to Information Act: The 2005 Right to
Information Act required government officials to
provide information requested by citizens or face
punitive action, as well as the computerization of
services and the establishment of vigilance
commissions. This considerably reduced
corruption and opened up avenues to redress
grievances.
14. Right to public services legislation: Right to Public Services
legislation, which has been enacted in 19 states of India, guarantee
time bound delivery of services for various public services rendered
by the Government to citizen and provides mechanism for punishing
the errant public servant who is deficient in providing the service
stipulated under the statute.
The Lokpal and Lokayuktas Act, 2013 which came into force from
16 January 2014, seeks to provide for the establishment of the
institution of Lokpal to inquire into allegations of corruption against
certain public functionaries in India.
15. CIVIC ANTI-CORRUPTION
ORGANIZATIONS:
Bharat Swabhiman Trust, established by Ramdev, has campaigned against
black money and corruption for a decade.
5th Pillar is most known for the creation of the zero rupee note, a
valueless note designed to be given to corrupt officials when they request
bribes.
India Against Corruption was a popular movement active during 2011-12
that received much media attention. Among its prominent public faces were
Arvind Kejriwal, Kiran Bedi and Anna Hazare. Kejriwal went on to form the
Aam Aadmi Party and Hazare established Jan Tantra Morcha.
Association for Social Transparency, Rights and Action (ASTRA) is an
NGO focused on grass-roots work to fight corruption in Karnataka.
The Lok Satta Movement, has transformed itself from a civil organisation
to a full-fledged political party, the Lok Satta Party. The party has fielded
candidates in Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu, and Bangalore.
16. What government should
do
Strong and stringent laws need to be enacted which gives no room for the
guilty to escape.
Establishment of special courts for speedy justice can be a huge positive
aspect. Much time should not elapse between the registration of a case
and the delivery of judgment.
In many cases, the employees opt for corrupt means out of compulsion and
not by choice. Some people are of the opinion that the wages paid are
insufficient to feed their families. If they are paid better, they would not
be forced to accept bribe.
The one thing that needs to be ensured is proper, impartial, and unbiased
use of various anti-social regulations to take strong, deterrent, and timely
legal action against the offenders, irrespective of their political
influences or money power.
In many ways, having a more simple and straightforward bureaucracy –
which is incredibly easier today with digital technology – is one of the
most effective ways to fight corruption in India.
