Abstract

Corruption is a worldwide problem that pervades every industry and society. Thus, corruption is a worldwide problem, and no nation is immune. Those who know how to use the power of money to get what they want, whether it a commercial transaction or a high-paying job, spread corruption from one part of the nation to another. There will be a downward spiral. It's not only the wealthy nations that have corrupt practises; the emerging ones do, too. Both emerging nations and developed nations like the United States, the United Kingdom, and France have been shown to be plagued by systemic corruption throughout history. Corruption has become a hot topic in modern India. For what reason is this happening? Does this mean that India is the only corrupt nation on Earth? Is this unethical behaviour limited to certain nations, or does it occur everywhere? Who among us is not tainted by corruption? To what extent is it acceptable to engage in corrupt behaviour? Which part does the politician play in fostering corruption? How does the judicial system play a part in eradicating corruption? To what extent can media outlets help combat corruption? How can society at large play a part in fighting graft? Who will rid our Indian society of corruption once and for all? These are some of the fundamental issues that researchers have sought to address by looking for potential explanations and remedies for this kind of dishonesty.
