Corruption In India

In the sacred land called Bharat Corruption has become a habit. From top brass in authority To the lower sections and aam aadhmi! But the menace has gained strong roots Into every sphere and profession; All the good that is being done Is offset by corruption. Blame corruption for many evils And vices that plague society; It is the cause for democracy Being unable to deliver its fruits! It is reason for rich becoming richer, And the poor turning poorer; It is the cause of price-rise, And taxes exorbitant! It is why black-money grows And black-marketing prevails; This is why India remains quite poor, And under developed among world nations! If only corruption can be curbed, India will become a paradise; A billion souls can live in peace, And prosperity will dwell upon all! Thanks to one great Indian soul, Anna Hazare for awakening Indians Against corruption – root cause of poverty! Copyright by Dr John Celes 28-08-11
