Incredible Indians FIGHT AGAINST CORRUPTION Online. Third time after Quit India Movement and Anna Hazare Jan Lokpal Bill, a CQIM Revolution

Online to support and achieve a corruption free India. Call for 'Do or Die' as no more of corruption can be tolerated in India.


First Movement 1916–1947 :-
Quit India Movement:
The Indian people's struggle against the British for Indian Independence.


Second Movement 2011 2012 :-
Anna Hazare Jan Lokpal Bill, a Indian anti-corruption movement :

The movement has gained momentum since 5 April 2011, when anti-corruption activist Anna Hazare began his now-famous hunger strike at the

Jantar Mantar in New Delhi. The chief legislative aim of the movement is to alleviate corruption in the Indian government through the Jan

Lokpal Bill. Another important aim, led by protests under Swami Ramdev, is the repatriation of black money from Swiss and other foreign

banks.

Series of demonstrations and protests across India intended to establish strong legislation and enforcement against endemic political

corruption before the 2012 Indian anti-corruption movement was started.2012 Indian anti-corruption movement is the successor of 2011 Indian

anti-corruption movement which ended on the last day of Winter session of Rajya Sabha.

Grievances of mass protesters focus on legal and political issues including political corruption, kleptocracy, and other forms of corruption.

The movement is primarily one of non-violent civil resistance, featuring demonstrations, marches, acts of civil disobedience, hunger strikes,

marches and rallies, as well as the use of social media to organize, communicate, and raise awareness. The protests are unusual as they have

no political affiliation; most protesters have been hostile to attempts by political parties to use them to strengthen their own personal

political agendas.

Notes from Organiser

This is a Do or Die call to all Indians to fight against corruption. Corruption can end only when we want to end it and we take efforts to

eradicate this socila evil. This means we dont bribe for easier shortcuts. We fight for right cause. Just imaging the amount of money the

traffic police would be earning on a busy road or national highway. And they so shamelessly want any amounts of money to avoid challans. Why

do not we all deny them any bribe and why not we pay the same at cells to settle the challan. By giving them money we al encourage them to do

it more and become shamless and ask bribe from anyone and everyone. I know the bad situation of law & order in India & these departments in

particular who have heads who are encouraging such shameless looting from common man, but we need to unite and do something to not let it

grow further. If we wont stop it now, the day is not far when things will be out of out control and and we will be the people suffering most.

We are a incredible country with huge middle class population and second most poplulous country. We are a big volume to make these changes

and show that power is with youth and citizns not with these greedy polititions. I understand there is a poluation which is poor and

uneduacated who are easily misled. But can't we give them some advise and wisdom. Yes, we can. We are a devoloping country with great

potential and talents and nothing is impossible for us. Lets make a pledge that we will not let this plague of corruption ruin our country.


We young people are the future of this "BRIC" country which will has all the potential to be the biggest superpower one day ( Even projected

as one of World's 5 most  influential countries in coming few years including Brazil, Russia, China along with USA ("BRIC" stands for Brazil,

Russia, India, China and "BRICS" has a latest addition of South Africa as future potential super powers)


It is really sad to know that India, a beautiful country with great natural heritage, national parks and awesome tourism potential of

Himalayan Arc has villages even in year 2012 with such state of neglect. The infrasturucture is imroving but at a speed that it can called as

no development at all when compared with rest of the world. It seems like public works around us are just a public display of work being

undertaken. But actually these are ways to loot more money from government funds in name of public works.

Corruption of politicians has really effected people of India as a whole. I am not residing in India from last 5 years since i started my

world tour, but i know how angry and agitated we all Indians are today be it living in India or not, because of corruption in India. Its not

just politicians and policewalls it is even we who pay bribe to these traffic men and politicians and all others for our business and easy

shortcuts.WE HAVE TO STOP THIS TO BRING THIS CHANGE.

If I pen down lists of things and people who can contribute to this corruption I guess we all can fall into the corruption category. I think

at times that after i return to India, whom should I elect or vote. Everybody who wants to rule the state is corrupt or will turn corrupt as

greed for money has never limited these leaders. We Indian youth who are youngest country in World with 70 percent of population so young are

in need of revolution to get away with these senior politicians and corrupt law and order personnel and say no to corruption ourselves at

ever point we face it.

Untill and unless we do not contribute anything to stop this corruption nothing is going to change. There has to be some change in people who

rule our Incredible India and this change can come from young leaders who have there mind in place, there greed for money at nill and who

love there mother country like there family. The superpowers in 2050 as projected by US intelligence and G7+BRIC nation that world sees us

now won't matter much if we can't get rid of corruption from its grass root level. Seriously, I am fed up with these faulty leaders and

corrupt citizens who defame our rich heritage and culture and limit our growth.

There would be many people from our country who would not like to return to India thinking of "Law and Order" and "Corruption" levels here. I

have  idea about what my parents, friends & brothers in India feel about this topic, as I have lived here more than 25 years and i closely

read latest news from India online. I have even started a event "Fight against Corruption" on Facebook and my official website (

http://www.sundeepkullu.com/corruption-quit-india-movement-cqim.html ) . Do like comment follow and support and share this event with your

friends and social circles and with any fellow citizens in India and abroad.

It is really sad to know that after reading articles on various news dailies like Hillpost.in on Himachal ,Uttranchal, Arunachal Pradesh &

Jammu and Kashmir and Seven Sisters  which are most beautiful states in India  with great  National Parks like Great Himalayan National Park

(GHNP) , Pin Valley Natioinal Park, Hemis National Park , Kistawar National Park, Kaziranga National Park, Kanchenjunga, Kamet, Gangotri

National Park, Jim Corbet National Park etc  and many UNESCO World Heritage Sites of Natural order ( Total 28 UNESCO World Heritage Sites in

India and 31 more on Tentative UNESCO List proposed )  and peaks like Nanda Devi Biosphere and Valley of flowers with awesome pilgrimage

tourism potential for Chota Chaar Dhaam Yatra in Uttrakhand and beautifull valleys of Kullu, Lahaul ,Spiti, Kinnaur, Shimla, Mandi, Udaipur,

Keylong, Dharamshala in Himachal Pradesh and in its neighbourhood Leh, Ladakh and in Tawang, Arunachal Pradesh in the Himalayas of India

todday, still in year 2012 we have villages with such state of neglect and bad infrastructure.

No eforts are being takenby govt. to protect these green places which may loose their charm in near future if not card for in time. But why

wil these corrupt people care for such bio-diversity when all they care is looting money from all souces they can. Why will they understand

the impact this careless behaviour will have in the place they live in long term. They do not mind cutting endless trees for small profits.

All they care is the bribe they get. Forest Departments are not away from these benifits and may no understand how big is the loss of cutting

trees at the rate thay are cut.


Soon these places will be ruined and we will have no natural heritage to pass to next generations. Look at Germany and Switzerland and other

advanced countries how well they care for nature even a single tree around them. And looking at the condition of these green areas of India.

I guess its so shamful for the Tourism and Infrasturcture organisations in India. Corruption of politicians has really effected people of

these states as no development and improvement in infrastructure can be seen.


On the other hand ther is flow of millions of tourists to these destinations from all around the world. Lot of revenue is being earned by

government too but no imvestment done to improve the infrasture to the world levels. India is one of 3 biggest economies in the World with

3rd in GDP ( PPP ). We citizens of India do not expect this from our leaders. Why is it that in China where there is corruption too still we

see great infrastructure and development. Why the greed of people is so much in this part of the world that they want to take all the cash

and do not improvement. Is this money that important to buy most expensive cars and big houses and bunglows to show off luxurious living or

is it more important for the development of country? I would like to ask such greedy people and all of Indians who do not fight againt

corruption.


I have traveled to more than 70 countries in 6 continents and have seen many Indian's making progress and running big businesses in allmost

all the major countires of the world. India's are everywhere be it any continent. And i see them contributing a lots to the economies of

other countries, even after being considered like aliens in those countries. And theise people living outside bring lot of Foreign Currency

and contribute a lot to the economy and conrtibute to grea chink of GDP too. But why they cant do the same business in India ? Answer is

simple the poltical structures the faulty systems, the uneasy negotiations and to sum in one word, "Corruption!!!!" Actually they do not need

to be in other countries. They can do a lot in India only. But these plagued systems and Govt. policies make them deprived of deserved govt

Jobs and contribute to national developement and there is lot of brain drain to other countries.


But I guess Indians abroad all love there Incredible country and want to be back and wish it to be ruled by people who love its growth. How

can we lack behind China when we both countries were competitors and started this race to development together few years before. Even hen we

were more skilled people and better english speakers. Answer is again "Corruption!!!" Why we are still developing or lingering inbetween

developing and developed or both rich and poor even today when China has developed and advanced so far that it will be bihest superpower in

the World by 2025 as projected by US intelligence. India has biggest billionaires in the World and have most money than any country in the

World in Swiss banks? Why people cheat there fellow people and suppress the poor class and make so big saving in swiss banks? Tey not only

cheat there country but even deprieve it from its potential growth. These people have to realise the big mistake they are doig by loting

there own country. I wish Go gives them some wisdom to understand this.


Why our borders are so unsafe and cut off from rest of India in Rohtang Pass and Leh areas which makes us so vulnerable to attacks by China

or Pakistan who have taken our pride our cap of Kashmir allready by 45 percent. A area so beautiful and called Heaven in Earth is no more

heaven for tourists due to political stability and even considered unsafe for world travelers.Why can't we give respect to people in KASHMIR

and give them there share of development and care for them and oust so called politicians and terrorists. The ways government and army has

been treating them is quite offensive to locals there so they want to have a independent state. How long we will keep fighting intra and

inter social elements in the beautiful state of Kashmir. Well leaders are for this right? But do we hav effective leaders or we have only

corrupt leaders?  I guess we all know the answer.

Some Lines on corrution in Hindi :
आज के आधुनिक युग में व्यक्ति का जीवन अपने स्वार्थ तक सीमित होकर रह गया है। प्रत्येक कार्य के पीछे स्वार्थ प्रमुख हो गया है। समाज में अनैतिकता, अराजकता और स्वार्थ से युक्त भावनाओं का बोलबाला हो गया है। परिणामस्वरुप भारतीय संस्कृति और उसका पवित्र तथा नैतिक स्वरुप

धुँधा हो गया है। इसका एक कारण समाज में फैल रहा भ्रष्टाचार भी है। भ्रष्टाचार के इस विकराल रुप को धारण करने का सबसे बड़ा कारण है, आज के अर्थप्रधान युग में प्रत्येक व्यक्ति धन प्राप्त करने में लगा हुआ है। कमरतोड़ महंगाई भी इसमें इजाफ़ा करने का काम कर रही है। मनुष्य की

आवश्यकताएँ बढ़ जाने के कारण वह उन्हें पूरा करने के लिए मनचाहे तरीकों को अपना रहा है।
भारत के अंदर तो भ्रष्टाचार का फैलाव दिन-भर-दिन बढ़ रहा है। किसी भी क्षेत्र में चले जाएं भ्रष्टाचार का फैलाव दिखाई देता है। भारत के सरकारी व गैर-सरकारी विभाग इस बात का सबसे बड़ा प्रमाण हैं। आप यहाँ से अपना कोई भी काम करवाना चाहते हैं, बिना रिश्वत खिलाए काम करवाना

संभव नहीं है। मंत्री से लेकर संतरी तक को अपनी फाइल बढ़वाने के लिए पैसे का उपहार चढाना ही पड़ेगा। स्कूल व कॉलेज भी इस भ्रष्टाचार से अछूते नहीं है। बस इनके तरीके दूसरे हैं। गरीब परिवारों के बच्चों के लिए तो शिक्षा सरकारी स्कूलों व छोटे कॉलेजों तक सीमित होकर रह गई है।

नामी स्कूलों में दाखिला कराना हो, तो डोनेशन के नाम पर मोटी रकम मांगी जाती है। बैंक जोकि हर देश की अर्थव्यवस्था का आधार स्तंभ हैं, वे भी भ्रष्टाचार के इस रोग से पीड़ित हैं। आप किसी प्रकार के लोन के लिए आवेदन करें पर बिना किसी परेशानी के फाइल निकल जाए, यह तो

संभव नहीं हो सकता। देश की आंतरिक सुरक्षा का भार हमारे पुलिस विभाग पर होता है। परन्तु आए दिन यह समाचार आते-रहते हैं कि आमुक पुलिस अफ़सर ने रिश्वत लेकर एक गुनाहगार को छोड़ दिया। भारत को इस तरह का भ्रष्टाचार खोखला बना रहा है।हमारे समाज में फन फैला रहे,

इस विकराल नाग को मारना होगा। सबसे पहले आवश्यक है प्रत्येक व्यक्ति के मनोबल को ऊँचा उठाया जाए। प्रत्येक व्यक्ति को अपने कर्तव्यों का निर्वाह करते हुए अपने को इस भ्रष्टाचार से बाहर निकालना होगा। यही नहीं शिक्षा में कुछ ऐसा अनिवार्य अंश जोड़ना होगा, जिससे हमारी नई पीढ़ी

प्राचीन संस्कृति तथा नैतिक प्रतिमानों को संस्कार स्वरुप लेकर विकसित हो। न्यायिक व्यवस्था को कठोर करना होगा तथा सामान्य जन को आवश्यक सुविधाएँ भी सुलभ करानी होगी। इसी आधार पर आगे बढ़ना होगा, तभी इस स्थिति में कुछ सुधार की अपेक्षा की जा सकती है।


CORRUPTION  IN  INDIA
Effects of corruption

According to a report by KPMG, "high-level corruption and scams are now threatening to derail the country's credibility and [its] economic

boom".


Economic Concerns

Corruption may lead to further bureaucratic delay and inefficiency as corrupted bureaucrats may introduce red tape to extract more bribes.

Such inadequacies in institutional efficiency could affect growth indirectly by lowering the private marginal product of capital and

investment rate. Levine and Renelt showed that investment rate is a robust determinant of economic growth. According to the neoclassical

growth model, institutional variables contribute to determining steady-state per capital income levels and speed of convergence to its steady

state, hence affecting its growth rate.
Bureaucratic inefficiency could also affect growth directly, such as through misallocation of investments in the economy. When a country’s

economy is below its steady-state income level, higher corruption could result in lower growth, for a given level of income

Points :

***Political, bureaucratic, corporate and individual corruption in India are major concerns. A 2005 study conducted by Transparency

International in India found that more than 55% of Indians had first-hand experience of paying bribes or influence peddling to get jobs done

in public offices successfully.

***Transparency International estimates that truckers pay US$5 billion in bribes annually.In 2011 India was ranked 95th out of 178 countries

in Transparency International's Corruption Perceptions Index.

***In the book 'Corruption in India: The DNA and RNA' authored by Professor Bibek Debroy and Laveesh Bhandari say that the public officials

in India may be cornering as much as Rs.92,122 crore ($18.42 billion), or 1.26 per cent of the GDP, through corruption.The books estimates

that corruption has virtually enveloped India growing annually by over 100 percent and most bribery is accrued from the transport industry,

real estate and "other public services".

***On March 31, 2010 the Comptroller and Auditor General of India said that unutilised committed external assistance was of the order of

Rs.1,05,339 crore.”

***“The recent scams involving unimaginably big amounts of money, such as the 2G spectrum scam, are well known. It is estimated that more

than US$1 trillion are stashed away in foreign havens, while World Bank estimated every second child is malnourished. It seems as if only the

honest people are poor in India and want to get rid of their poverty by education, emigration to cities, and immigration, whereas all the

corrupt ones, are getting rich through scams and crime. It seems as if India is a rich country filled with poor people", the organisers of

Dandi March II in the United States said.

***Black money refers to money removed from the official economy (via corruption, bribery, tax evasion, etc.) and stored outside of the

country. A November 2010 report from the Washington-based Global Financial Integrity estimates that India lost at least US$462 billion in

illicit financial flows, another word for black money, from 1948 through 2008. The report also estimated the size of India's underground

economy at approximately US$640 billion at the end of 2008 or roughly 50% of the nation's GDP.

***Black money refers to funds earned on the black market, on which income and other taxes has not been paid. The total amount of black money

deposited in foreign banks by Indians is unknown, but many estimates that a total of US$1.5 trillion are stashed abroad.According to Central

Bureau of Investigation (CBI) Indians are the largest depositors in banks abroad with an estimated $500 billion of illegal money stashed by

them in tax havens.


***Black Money in Switzerland According to a 2010 The Hindu article, unofficial estimates indicate that Indians had over US$1456 billion in

black money stored in Swiss banks (approximately USD 1.4 trillion).[26] While some news reports claimed that data provided by the Swiss

Banking Association Report (2006) showed India has more black money than the rest of the world combined,[27][28] a more recent report quoted

the SBA's Head of International Communications as saying that no such official statistics exist.[29] Another report said that Indian-owned

Swiss bank account assets are worth 13 times the country’s national debt.The current investigation is undertaken by the Income Tax

Department.



Politics
As of December 2008, 120 of India's 523 parliament members were facing criminal charges.[15] Many of the biggest scandals since 2010 have

involved very high levels of government, including Cabinet Ministers and Chief Ministers, such as in the 2G spectrum scam, the 2010

Commonwealth Games scam and the Adarsh Housing Society scam, mining scandal in Karnataka and cash for vote scam.



Bureaucracy
A 2005 study done by Transparency International (TI) in India found that more than 50% of the people had firsthand experience of paying bribe

or peddling influence to get a job done in a public office.[2] Taxes and bribes are common between state borders; Transparency International

estimates that truckers pay annually US$5 billion in bribes.[3] A 2009 survey of the leading economies of Asia, revealed Indian bureaucracy

to be not just least efficient out of Singapore, Hong Kong, Thailand, South Korea, Japan, Malaysia, Taiwan, Vietnam, China, Philippines and

Indonesia; further it was also found that working with India's civil servants was a "slow and painful" process.




Land and property
Officials often steal state property. In cities and villages throughout India, consisting of municipal and other government officials,

elected politicians, judicial officers, real estate developers and law enforcement officials, acquire, develop and sell land in illegal ways.




Tendering processes and awarding contracts
Government officials having discretionary powers in awarding contracts engage in preferential treatment for selected bidders and display

negligence in quality control processes[citation needed]. Many state-funded construction activities in India, such as road building, are

dominated by construction mafias, which are groupings of corrupt public works officials, materials suppliers, politicians and construction

contractors.[18] Shoddy construction and material substitution (e.g. mixing sand in cement while submitting expenses for cement) result in

roads and highways being dangerous, and sometimes simply washed away when India's heavy monsoon season arrives.[





Mining scam in India
Mining scam in India (colloquially Indian mining scam) is a series of widespread scams in various ore-rich states of India, and has generated

controversy, which spans encroachment of forest areas, underpayment of government royalties, conflict with tribals regarding land-rights

[citation needed]. The spill-over of the effects of legal mining into problems such as Naxalism and the distortion of Indian democracy by

mixed political and mining interests, has gained international attention.[1][2]
Latest scam that has come out is the Coal Mining Scam in the the Government has lost Rs 10.7 lakh crore by not Auctioning Coal Blocks says

the 110 page CAG Report.




Medicine
In Government Hospitals, corruption is associated with non availability/duplication of medicines, getting admission, consultations with

doctors and availing diagnostic services.

Income tax department
There have been several cases of collusion of officials of the income tax department of India for a favorable tax treatment and relaxed

prosecutions in return for bribes.[20]


Driver Licensing
A study conducted between 2004 and 2005 found that India’s driver licensing procedure was a hugely distorted bureaucratic process and allows

drivers to get licenses despite their low driving ability through promoting the usage of agents. Individuals with high willingness to pay

make a significant payment above the official fee and most of these extra payments are made to agents, who act as an intermediary between

bureaucrats and applicants. The average license getter paid Rs 1080, approximately 2.5 times the official fee of Rs 450, in order to obtain a

license. On average, those who hired agents had a lower driving ability, with agents helping unqualified drivers obtain licenses and bypass

the legally required driving examination. Among the surveyed individuals, approximately 60% of the license holders did not take the licensing

exam and 54% of those license holders failed an independent driving test.
Agents are the channels of inefficient corruption in this bureaucratic driver licensing system, facilitating access to licenses among those

who are unqualified to drive. Some of the failures of this licensing system are caused by corrupt bureaucrats who collaborate with agents by

creating additional barriers within the system against those who did not hire agents[24].


Judiciary
According to Transparency International, judicial corruption in India is attributable to factors such as "delays in the disposal of cases,

shortage of judges and complex procedures, all of which are exacerbated by a preponderance of new laws".[31]
[edit]Armed forces

The Indian Armed Forces have witnessed corruption involving senior armed forces officers from the Indian Army, Indian Navy and Indian Air

Force. A number of scandals in the 2000-2010 period damaged the military's reputation; such scandals included skimming of armed forces money,

re-selling of government property, and faking combat missions.


Whistleblower protection in IndiaWhistleblower protection in India refers to provisions put in place in order to protect someone who exposes

alleged wrongdoing. The wrongdoing might take the form of fraud, corruption or mismanagement. India does not have a law to protect

whistleblowers; however, the Public Interest Disclosure and Protection to Persons Making the Disclosure Bill, 2010 was approved by the

Cabinet of India as part of a drive to eliminate corruption in the country's bureaucracy




***Anti-Corruption Laws in India
Public servants in India can be penalized for corruption under the
Indian Penal Code, 1860
The Prevention of Corruption Act, 1988
The Benami Transactions (Prohibition) Act, 1988 to prohibit benami transactions.
Prevention of Money Laundering Act, 2002
India is also a signatory (not ratified) to the UN Convention against Corruption since 2005. The Convention covers a wide range of acts of

corruption and also proposes certain preventive policies.


***Anti-corruption organizations
A variety of organizations have been created in India to actively fight against corrupt government and business practices. Notable

organizations include:
Bharat Swabhiman Trust established by well known Yog Guru Swami Ramdev running a large campaign against black money and corruption since last

10 years.
5th Pillar is most known for the creation of the zero rupee note, a valueless note designed to be given to corrupt officials when they

request bribes.
India Against Corruption is a movement created by a citizens from a variety of professions and statuses to work against corruption in India.

It is currently headed by Anna Hazare.
Jaago Re! One Billion Votes is an organization originally founded by Tata Tea and Janaagraha to increase youth voter registration. They have

since expanded their work to include other social issues, including corruption.
Association for Social Transparency, Rights and Action (ASTRA) is an NGO focused on grass-roots work to fight corruption in Karnataka.
One organization, the Lok Satta Movement, has transformed itself from a civil organization to a full-fledged political party, the Lok Satta

Party. The party has fielded candidates in Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu, and Bangalore. In 2009, it obtained its first elected post, when

Jayaprakash Narayan won the election for the Kukatpally Assembly Constituency in Andhra Pradesh.



***Right to Information Act
The Right to Information Act (2005) and equivalent acts in the states, that require government officials to furnish information requested by

citizens or face punitive action, computerization of services and various central and state government acts that established vigilance

commissions have considerably reduced corruption or at least have opened up avenues to redress grievances.[2][33] The 2006 report by

Transparency International puts India at the 70th place and states that significant improvements were made by India in reducing corruption.

The Right to Information Act 2005 (RTI) is an Act of the Parliament of India "to provide for setting out the practical regime of right to

information for citizens." The Act applies to all States and Union Territories of India except the State of Jammu and Kashmir. Jammu and

Kashmir has its own act called Jammu & Kashmir Right to Information Act, 2009. Under the provisions of the Act, any citizen may request

information from a "public authority" (a body of Government or "instrumentality of State") which is required to reply expeditiously or within

thirty days. The Act also requires every public authority to computerize their records for wide dissemination and to pro-actively publish

certain categories of information so that the citizens need minimum recourse to request for information formally.

This law was passed by Parliament on 15 June 2005 and came fully into force on 13 October 2005.[1] Information disclosure in India was

hitherto restricted by the Official Secrets Act 1923 and various other special laws, which the new RTI Act now relaxes. The formal

recognition of a legal right to information in India occurred more than two decades before legislation was finally enacted, when the Supreme

Court of India ruled in State of U.P. v. Raj Narain that the right to information is implicit in the right to freedom of speech and

expression explicitly guaranteed in Article 19 of the Indian Constitution.
