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.

Corruption is encouraged due to absence of transparency and accountability since mostly things are people driven and thereby authority misused. this Lacuna can be controlled by driving everything through a simple ERP system with Data Analytics riding over it to assess gaps through the system itself in an automated manner. This can control and prevent corruption in a significant manner once transparency comes forth. Can elaborate, if needed.

Part2 *We have been seeing Corruption in:- Schools, Colleges, Hospitals, All Govt Offices, Bus, Gram Pachayath, Tq Pachayath, Zp, Wherever we go. Note: All are not involved. I'm going to Suggest: 1) As Modiji Said Less Cash Transaction. 2) Both Government employees and Politicians and Relatives should disclose their income and wealth every 6 Months and display to Public 3) Every Complaint should desplay And Strict Action 4) Age Limit (For Govt Employee & Politicians) 5) Awareness

To Control Corruption Rule of One Person one Bank account must be made. So that It become easy for IT also to find out all the transactions done by every person. Also every Government employee and officer must covered by CCTV camera from the back side of the table at which he/she is working.

9) Anti Corruption Bureau, employees should be removed if they are not doing ethical practices. Mostly they go blind on complaints or covers up by doing corruption. 10) Anti Corruption Bureau, should publish weekly magazine reporting work done by them. Targets achieved by them. Graphics showing which department and region is most corrupt. %ge of corruption cases reported against transactions carried out by office. 11) Media Campaign should be run , bigger than swatchch bharat.

Create and advertise (on as many as possible media) an open email id, mobile number with whatapp for reporting any type corruption. Each reported case should be attended within specific period of time. Publish each reported cases summary on a web portal for public awareness. Suppose i will report any case immediately i could able to see my ticket on that portal when it is considered.

Yes, the corruption can only be reduced by inducing self-discipline in people. School children should be taught about behavioural ethics in public. No parent is teaching their child to protect the public assets. I am telling this view on basis of how garbage is thrown from trains onto fields and platforms and roads after usage by young and the old alike. Usage of pedestrian cross in roads, Horn usage in public, Usage of headlights in cars and two-wheelers etc.
