Corruption...

For so long I have been conceiving that HIV/AIDs is the most fatal disease though there were also some deadly diseases like TB, plague, chicken pox, measles etc, But fortunately with the rapid proliferation in medical science and scientific technologies, all these horrific diseases- some of them were able to be eradicated while some of them have become curable and avertable. But as I mature both physically and psychologically, I come to a realization that  those aforementioned diseases were

not really the deadly diseases since they are either curable or evitable.. There is one disease which, neither a doctor can treat, nor a saint can cure by his rituals. And it carries a chain of dreadful effect on the society, nation and the people.  Do you know what is it??? It is none than the"Corruption". I personally feel that we should be more afraid of this disease than aforementioned diseases.

So, what actually means Corruption??? I bet, different people will give different views on it if I am to go on asking person to person. But generally, 'Corruption is  defined as, the perversion of entrusted power for private gain'. What leads to corruption?? You may tend to ask yourself when you see the word" Corruption". Well, as I went through one article on this subject, I saw there are three  main factors or instigators. They are:
1. Bribery
2. Embezzlement
3.Favoritism.

Corruption prevails every where ranging from small society to a big nation, but mostly corruption is deemed to be prevailing among the civil servants, especially the politicians. It is not a simple thing. If it is left unchecked, a grand corruption can even make our people and the nation destitute in a long run. Corruption happens out of one's insatiable greed and desires and mishandling of one's own power and the resources.
Nobody is born corrupt but every one become corrupt. What makes a man corrupt??. The first and foremost thing is ' temptation'. This temptation will lead to corrupt mind.Now a man becomes a man with corrupt mind. So this corrupt mind will instigate a man to indulge in corrupt activities. Now a man becomes a corrupt man. So this corrupt man will definitely abet other close friends and conspire to involve in corruption. And gradually the number will go on increasing creating a corrupt society. This is how ' corruption' strews all over the community and nation as a whole.

Our country, Bhutan is considered to be one of the countries in the world with least corruption. But I don't think it is true because I can see corruption everywhere, at every level of position, be it small organisations or big organisations, be it prime minister or peon,everywhere is corruption and everyone is corrupt though there may be some who are not corrupt.. I don't see equality and justice in our country also.

we can't put an end to the corruption but we can jointly alleviate it to the minimum. So let's  join our hands together and confront this disease, so- called corruption by adopting various tactics. If every one leads a selfless life and be dedicated to what we do, then I think corruption will no longer remain with us. Let's wish for a corruption-free country and strive towards making our dreams come true. "Say No to Corruption"
