In the past three years, the Government has endeavoured to remove corruption in every form and technology presents itself as one of the most potent tools. But, technological interventions work when the interventions are simple, transparent and include a public feedback mechanism. Utilising advancements in technology, the Government is following a multi-pronged strategy to tackle the problem in an effective manner

1. Transferring benefits directly to beneficiaries
2. Making government procurements transparent
3. Digitization of service deliveries
4. Promoting Cashless Transactions
5. Jan Bhagidari
6. Open Government Data

Direct Benefit Transfer was a significant step towards plugging leakages. Amount transferred via DBT is increasing and leakages are reducing. The government has laid equal emphasis on citizens getting Aadhaar. The Jan Dhan-Aadhaar-Mobile (JAM) trinity will bring complete accountability in monetary transactions and eliminate ghost beneficiaries.

Additionally, Government e-Marketplace (GeM) was launched to make government procurements simple and transparent, eliminating any scope of corruption. Faceless e-assessment for income tax payers introduced from 2018 was another important step. Tax officers now communicate with the taxpayers through the ‘E-Proceeding' facility which reduces human interface.

The fight against corruption is a long and arduous one. Various online platforms have been introduced by the government, wherein the citizens can join forces with them by sharing their feedback and views. The decision to involve the honest citizens of our country in the fight increases the strength of the force against corruption to a great extent.

In the same vein, MyGov invites citizens to share their ideas on how technology can be used to uproot corruption and suggest innovations to fight the malice in an effective manner. Ideas and suggestions can be provided in the form of a comment below or by attaching a PDF document.

Police is one of four piller of any Government, it is very bad to say that Police department is most of corrupt department in India. If you have money or power then Police will listen you. Law and order is not for common/poor people. Breaking law and making false report is normal practices in police department. Below is my suggestion to remove corruption from police department. 1. Install CCTV cam with audio recording in every police station 2. Install CCTV is part of uniform,

CORRUPTION ...IT IS SEEN MORE IN GOVERMENT SECTORS,BUT GOV IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR IT BECAUSE GOV ALREADY PROVIDES GOOD AMOUNT OF SALARY TO THEM. GOV CAN MAKE SOME RULES LIKE 1. TO MAKE SOME RESTRICTIONS ON GOV EMPLOYEES.2 TO MAKE THE LIMIT FOR THE TOURS AND TRAVELLING (ONE TOUR IN 1 YEAR) INTERNATIONAL AND 2 FOR DOMASTIC. AS WELL TO PUT THE SECURITY CCTV CAMERA IN THE GOV OFFICE. MOST OF THE GOV OFFICE IS NOT HAVING IT.AND TO PUT THE CCTV IN THE SURROUNDING THE AREAS NEAR BY & TO PUT VOICERECORD

Linking Aadhar to everything, is great! But the amount they charge under the table is unauthorized. Why can't we link Aadhar using our own mobile fingerprint scanner. No rush, no panic, no corruption. Technology Rocks! #DigitalIndia #Technology

Even though GST has been implemented for the simplification of tax of India and make everything the centralized, still the corruptions are there in the several GST department. For submitting the LUT form in GST, if any one reaches the department, then the personnel asking money of 5000+, which is very bad. And every one is giving because they don't want to drag because govt will take late and the personnel will take bribe also any way in future. So I hope, Govt will make it online

Expressing serious concern over the ever growing number of corruption cases and it is high time citizens came together to tell their government that they have had enough. This is a warning bell to all the state governments where the corruption is still in menace.

We call citizens to raise voice against the corruption menace and also asking citizens to refuse to pay taxes by launching a non-co-operation movement, if the government fails to control corruptions. The corruption in government run organizations has become the order of the day from the last two decades and terming corruption as a ‘Hydra-Headed Monster.

TV shows should be monitored and the siddha , ayurvedic practioners who are able to spend huge amounts for ad should be counter checked with their income returns. I heard that one of them is conducing consultation in marriage halls and from each person not less than 5000 is collected. In one day, their collections amount to lakhs. Seperate wing to trace such culprits should be created.TDS NOT REMITTED, SYSTEM TO TALLY WITH GOVT RECORDS SHOULD BE MADE

major area where tax evasion takes place is in hospitals.In Tamilnadu, most of the hospitals cheat govt by submitting false information. To counter this, the govt can introduce ebilling system, direct the hospitals to upload the bills generated on daily basis to central monitoring authority, which is to be set up for monitoring and punishing such people. Public to submit their bills for test check to the monitoring authority and if the bill does not match with the bills.

Corruption in India has become a way of life. A people representatives/politicians nor Government officials standard of living is now so high that the emoluments which he gets are not adequate to meet his expenses. Ultimately, it is the money that makes the mare go.
