“The people who take resort to corruption come under two major categories. The first major group is the third rate politicians, black marketers, unscrupulous businessmen, arms smugglers, drugs peddlers and so on. These people force corruption in all the departments by offering favors and by creating terror in the minds of the officials. Thus corrupt sections emerge in all the departments and they thrive by cooperating and conniving with one another. The other category belongs to the officials who delay their work, make the people suffer financial losses and other inconveniences and thus force them to come forward offering bribes to them. There are no adequate rules or guidelines to ensure that the problems of the people are sorted out in time. In the absence of effective supervision by higher-ups or with their connivance, corruption flourishes in various departments.”
