Abstract
From the 18th century till today, our motherland India has been constantly been stripped of her riches- be it the Turks, the British or the modern day politicians ruling our country. Today, India is one of the most corrupted countries across the globe & it is second in the Asian continent. It has failed to make any dent with anti-corruption measures as it is ranked 85 in Transparency International’s 2015 Corruption Perceptions Index. Corruption is the bane of modern society.
