Corruption has become one of the most serious problems of our country today. This problem is not limited to the government system only. Rather, it is deeply embedded in the social structure. Every common citizen, whether in the village or in the city, goes through this bitter experience in some form or the other.
Indian public suffering from bribery and corruption, a reflection
The need for recommendation and money to get work done in government offices has become a common thing today. Corruption has taken root in job licenses, tenders, and even in the field of education. In such a situation, the voice of the common man is suppressed and he starts losing faith in the democratic system.
Corruption cannot be eradicated only by legal measures. For this, moral awareness and responsible citizenship is also necessary in the society. Only when every citizen decides that he will neither give nor take bribe, the dream of an honest and just India will be realised.
A video from Bulandshahr district is going viral on social media. In the viral video, a traffic police inspector is seen taking bribe from an e-rickshaw driver.It is clearly visible in the video that the traffic police inspector stopped the e-rickshaw driver and asked for a bribe from him, then the e-rickshaw driver gave a bribe of Rs 450 to the inspector.
A passenger in the e-rickshaw recorded the video of the bribery and posted it on social media.Since then, this video is going viral. SSP has suspended Inspector Narendra Kumar and Constable Vikram Rathi.
Role and awareness of the public
Corruption is a serious problem which hinders the progress of the country. It can be effectively controlled only through legal reforms and active participation of the public. It is necessary that we all together find a solution to this problem and move towards a transparent and accountable governance system.
Public awareness and active participation is extremely important in the fight against corruption. By using tools like the Right to Information, citizens can ensure transparency in government functioning.
Apart from this, effective change is also possible by reporting corruption cases and participating in legal processes. The newspaper does not confirm the viral video. The viral video is said to be of Kalaam Chowk of Bulandshahr city.
In this viral video, the police inspector accused of taking bribe is asking the e-rickshaw driver to get a license. On the other hand, people say that the traffic police is harassing the drivers in the guise of checking.In this case, SSP Dinesh Kumar Singh said that the accused inspector and constable have been suspended with immediate effect.
