Citizen action is of paramount importance in uprooting the evil of corruption from our country. No one individual can be the source of change. The whole masses must change. Right from their ?chalta hai? attitude to sleeping at home on election days. Today, we first give our Government taxes so that the nation can be smoothly run and developed, and then give it more money in the form of bribes so that it doesn?t do what it is supposed to do.

ESSAY ON CORRUPTION
By Mahendra Pratap Singh
Citizen action is of paramount importance in uprooting the evil of corruption from our country. No one individual can be the source of change. The whole masses must change. Right from their ‘chalta hai’ attitude to sleeping at home on election days. Today, we first give our Government taxes so that the nation can be smoothly run and developed, and then give it more money in the form of bribes so that it doesn’t do what it is supposed to do. Most of us are aware of 1 or two fundamental rights, and 0 duties. An even lesser fraction actually understands and practices them. This needs to change at once. The citizens must be made fully aware of their duties- both constitutional and moral. Only when each one performs his or her duty can the nation move forward. And only when one performs his duties well can he have his rights, which again he must be fully aware of before exercising. A citizen’s work doesn’t end at bearing injustice and corruption and complaining uselessly. There are numerous such provisions like Right to Information Acts which permit the common person to fight against corruption. We need to make sure that such means are open to all and used fully. Most of us, if not all, have some or the other national leader as our ideal. But we must take these great men out of our walls and movies- into our hearts. We must rekindle the spark of progressiveness and national respect. Our nation has been legally independent for long, but we still need to win complete freedom- against ourselves. I aspire to bring together all the citizens of
India together and join hands to break the chains of corruption and create a new, developed, ethical and self-reliant mega nation.
An engineer by qualification, Mahendra Pratap sing felt the acute need of rural and urban growth to form his ideal nation. Pursuing his dream he founded PROJECT VIJAY with Himanshu Swarnkar in 2008. His Project VIJAY believes that RTI is the most progressive Act which empowers a citizen to scrap unethical system. They used the strength of RTI by filing information regarding the assets of suspicious members of Parliament in order to measure corrupt practices exercised at various levels.
