ANTI-CORRUPTION

India our country suffers from a horrible malady-corruption. Corruption may be
defined as an act of bribery or misuse of public position or power for the
fulfilment of selfish motives or to gain personal gratifications. The most
common forms of corruption are taking of bribes, nepotism, misappropriation
and patronage. The control and eventual eradication of corruption require
certain steps to be taken by the government and the citizens of the country.
These measures collectively form the anti-corruption machinery.
To curtail corruption the government of India did introduce anti corruption laws.
The Prevention of Corruption Act came into force in September 1988.It was an
improvisation of the Act of 1947. The scope of the act was enlarged and
widened to include the term ‘public servants’. The Central Government has set
up four departments to check corruption- Administrative Vigilance Division in
the department of Personnel and Training, Central Bureau of Investigation,
Domestic Vigilance units in Ministries/Departments/Public Undertakings or
Nationalized Banks and Central Vigilance Commission. These steps are
deemed outdated and underutilized by several critics. This is because most of
these departments are directly under the central government and hence have
no freedom to exercise powers of their own.
The constituted CBI team filed a charge sheet within a record time of 45 days
leading to the just treatment of the perpetrators of the crime.
The common man has a huge role to play in the control of corruption. The efforts
of veteran anti-corruption crusader Mr. Anna Hazare are exemplary. In April
2011 a peaceful and non-violent protest was staged at Jantar Mantar in New
Delhi. Mr. Hazare went on an indefinite fast which forced the government to
pass the Jan Lokpal Bill.
He received nationwide support in this endeavour. One of the main features of
the bill is that it will ensure an independent CBI. This is crucial in controlling
corruption at higher levels of the government (MLA’s MP’s and bureaucrats).
The rising levels of corruption have led to a widespread distrust in the common
man‘s minds. The formation of the Aam Aadmi party under the leadership of
Mr. Arvind Khejrewal proves this fact. People no longer have faith in any of the
political parties and are desperate for change.
The contribution of the CBI in the domain of anti corruption though trivial hasn’t
gone unnoticed. The Satyam Scam in the year 2009 is an example. The fraud
was perpetrated by inflating the revenue of the company through false sale
invoices and showing corresponding gains by forging bank statements with the
connivance of Statutory and Internal Auditors of the company.
The annual financial statements of the company with inflated revenue were
published for several years and this lead to higher price of the scrip in the
market. In the process, innocent investors were lured to invest in the company.
The 2G spectrum scam of 2012: This scam was brought to light in extensive detail
by the CBI. It involved politicians and government officials in India illegally
undercharging mobile telephone companies for frequency allocation licenses
which they would then use to generate 2G spectrum subscriptions for mobile
phones. The primary accused were the then telecom minister A. Raja and
member of parliament M.K. Kanimozhi and several other bureaucrats. This led
to their subsequent arrests and was instrumental in bringing the magnitude of
corruption in our system to light.
Corruption has spread its roots wide and deep into the Indian society. It is
common that a day in the life of an average Indian is impossible without an
experience of corruption. It is because of this fact that it is solely our
responsibility to ensure that we gift the future generations a corruption free
way of life. In several occasions we find ourselves to be the actual cause of
corruption at the grassroots. This requires immediate attention as the solution
to any problem is only found when it is nipped at the bud. India is the fastest
growing economy in the world. It is has immense potential to rise above its
own self and attain new heights in terms of scientific, social, cultural and
economical achievements. To utilize this and generate desired results we must
first remove the insignificant road block of corruption. If we fail to do so,
Corruption is and will always remain the Achilles heel of India.
YOUTH IN POLITICS

India is the biggest democracy in the world. The real power lies in the hands of
the people who elect the people who rule the country. By making the age of
casting of vote as 18, the government brought millions of people within the
ambit of active participation in elections thus giving a broad base to the
democratic processes. It also gave the message that our youth is mature and
wise enough to understand their responsibility and they would give their
mandate after carefully considering candidates’ capabilities. Being young, they
are not swayed by the old systems of caste, creed and other orthodoxy which
had been the bane of Indian politics for quite some time in the postindependence era. Young people are not only enthusiastic and energetic but
are also full of new ideas. They are able to instill freshness in the political
affairs of their respective region as well as the nation. Today’s youth are highly
intelligent and educated. They have a high awareness level. If they take part in
politics, they will enrich it with their new ideas.
Our political system is like a rotten apple and if a good apple will be kept in the
basket it will also get spoilt. So youth must come together and create a new
system that is unbiased, not corrupt and overall interests everyone and should
belong to none and still belong to everyone.
We are all enjoying our independence in this country….we got freedom from
British people…did all the freedom fighters fight and gave their lives to see this
kind of India….An India where anything or everything can be done only with
money… No! They had dreams and hope on the future generations I.e. us to
build a strong country. Our right is to VOTE…. elect people’s
representative…our representatives our states and our country’s
representatives…….can we let that position go into wrong hands? into the
hands of the persons who just want to fully fill their pockets…no we don’t
need them. All that we need are true leaders to lead this country into the path
of progress….youth must get into politics and bring a unique and drastic
change.
These words “OF THE PEOPLE, BY THE PEOPLE, and FOR THE PEOPLE” shall not
perish!!
”if were you want to follow your passion and do something now is certainly that
time friends“ youth must take the initiative a walk forward with calm and
stable mind.
“Anything does not get better by CHANCE….It gets better by CHANGE”

I am not here to complain about my life. I am here to introduce you all to the
different aspect of my life; a life which is according to me is an almost perfect
life. Today I am here to introduce my freshly started B.Tech life. It has been
about more than 30 days since my first step into the campus of VJIT. The step
which changed my thoughts about a good college, good classmates
everything.
In One word – Excellent
What did I expect From VJIT?
I expected a class full of rankers from all over A.P among whom I would be the
least learned one. Professors especially English, who would directly use the
most technical terms that I had already forgotten in, long vacation after
surviving intermediate.
I can write 1000’s of words without any issue but speaking is not my cup of tea.
At least this is what I thought about myself.
What did I experience on my first day?
I saw a group of 60 people who didn’t know each other, who had the same
speechlessness, same hesitation, same strange feeling as I had. And maybe I
never feel hesitated after that I know them I would be spending 4 amazing
years with all those people even if I didn’t even know their names at the
moment.
Exam and Attendance.
Right From the 1st class seniors were emphasizing on the word – “attendance”
whenever they used to talk with me. I still wonder why? I guess I would come
to know about the real fact When I get more habituated with college customs
like bunks deadline etc… :P ..
How I am feeling now in VJIT?
Proud to be VJIT Student.
Conclusion
“A lot of people want a shortcut. I find the best shortcut is the long way, which is
basically two words: work hard”.
I am going forward to do my target and T make all able to be known where the
work is moving with your best wishes.
I love Web and Blog (Web & Blog Designing). Basically that all happened by my
simple concept
“I AM AN IDEA, MY PAST WAS WISH AND FUTURE WILL BE INVENTION”.
INSPIRING CHANGES IN WOMEN
By

“A WOMEN IS LIKE A TEA BAG – YOU NEVER KNOW HOW STRONG SHE IS UNTILL
SHE GETS IN HOT WATER”
In God’s creation man and women are equal. Since Adam and Eve women have
been disgraced in many ways. In old age Women are considered as weaker
sex. Women came to be limited to their kitchen. They were not given proper
education. She does not have freedom. But in the modern world things have
changed. Women are in no way inferior to men. They are now entering all
fields which are exclusively occupied by men. They are making their presence
felt in almost all fields. The present women wants to be self dependent and
less dependent on men.
Whatever their chosen field from politics , education, research and pop stardom
to fashion and feminism women have been living their mark on the world
since time began.
HISTORY:
History is full of prominent part played by women in various aspects of human
life. If we take our history Rani Durgavathi, Chandbibi,Rani of Jhansi, Jijabai
and Razia sultan have left behind immoral of their patriotic fervor .
RANI LAKSHMI BAI is a classic example .She is the fiery Queen of Jhansi and one
of the great nationalist heroine of the first war of INDIAN FREEDOM a symbol
of resistance to the BRITISH RULE in INDIA. She was the symbol of PATRIOTISM
and SELF RESPECT. She was set an example to the people of India to achieve
independence. This inspirational change in her was one of the fragment which
lead to success .
In the fight for India’s freedom women worked shoulder to shoulder with men
and made remarkable contribution. The role played by SAROJINI NADIDU,
MATA KASTURBA,KAMALA NEHRU and VIJAY LAKSHMI PANDIT.After the
attainment of freedom women participated in the grand work of making this
great nation prosperous and happy. Sarojini naidu, Rajkumari Amrit worked a
lot. Indira Gandhi worked as Prime Minister for 17 years and sacrificed her life
for unity of India. This say that the women were set as inspiration.
• MOTTO:
If women is sufficiently ambitious and determined and there is practically nothing
she can’t do .Women is a miracle of DIVINE CONTRADICTIONS. Love and
Selfless service are fundamental qualities of Women soul. Today women are
fighting for their rights. The present Women are CONFIDENT and say
I am STRONG;
• I have been through a lot and in my life and I am still standing.
I am SELF WORTH;
• It took lot of soul searching to finally see myself.
I am BEAUTIFUL;
• I don’t need any one tell me, I already know my glow.
I am not PERFECT;
• Nobody is perfect but I have seen my good and bad sides.
I am just MYSELF;
• I have never been alone; I will always be there for me.
SUCCESS OF WOMEN:
With courage and confidence as watchword women are achieving great things.
MARIE CURIE was the first women to receive NOBEL PRIZE in the field of
science and if she would have thought that her place is kitchen then she would
not have achieved anything.
Even KALPANA CHAWLA was the first Indian-American astronaut. Though she was
not their but inspiration still persist and many are walking in her way taking
her as inspiration.
Women like MOTHER THERISA who has brought a change in herself and intended
to help the need and became a Global Icon for SELFLESS service to others. She
devoted her life to the self service. Even there are many women becoming as
nuns and devoting their life to social service. This might be a magnificent
change in women.
The above aspects show the change in women and their involvement in fields of
research , medicine ,social service and are expanding their era excelled their.
CHANGE IN WOMEN CAN CHANGE THE WORLD:
A women can “CHANGE THE WORLD”. For instance if we take lively example of
QUEEN ELIZABETH II was the women witnessing rapid social and economic
changes and has been a unifying influence for BRITAN and COMMONWEALTH .
If this probably would be a good example showing the inspirational change in
women and even changing the world.
BENAZIR BUTTO she was the women who brought a drastic change in PAKISTHAN
from a dictatorship to democracy. Only a women could be able to do this.
Even a lively example MALALA YOUSAFZIA She is a pakisthan school girl who
defied threats of the TALIBAN to campaign for the right to education .She
survived being shot in the head by Taliban and has fought for the Right to
Education and now she has become a Global Advocate for women rights
especially for the Right to Education.
PROBLEMS FACED BY PRESENT WOMEN (India)
As we Happiness and sadness are two sides of a coin. Even women are facing
problems also inspite of their change as they are being deceived by men. In order
to put an end to such practices there women should become strengthen and
would be able to overcome such problems. Men should think that -When you
strike a WOMEN you strike ROCK. So this is the another change required in
women. Even killing the girl infants has been nourished by them when they grown
up. One should feel pity for it. Men should admire and respect women. As we
know in the word WOMEN only there is MEN one should understand this so
without women there is no men. According to me
W: Wonderful Persons
O: Obeys others
M: Maintains respect for the family
E: Encourages the family to follow good path
N: Nurtures Confidence
The government is encouraging women in improving their position in society. A new
law called NIRBHAYA has came into existence to clear the problems faced by
women. Every year INTERNATIONAL WOMEN’S DAY was celebrated on MARCH
8.There is a great thing that even
WOMEN BANK is also established this shows the uplift women status. Many
incentives are provided by both central and state government to save the girl
child.
CONCLUSION:
Women are leaders everywhere you look from the CEO who runs a fortune 500
company to the housewife who raises her children and heads her household.
Our nation was built by strong women and will continue to break down walls
and defy sterotypes.
”WOMEN ARE REAL ARCHITECTS OF SOCIETY”.
It is not very easy to grow up into a women. We are always taught, almost
bombarded with ideals of what we should be at every age in our lives.”This is
what you wear at age 20”.”That is what you must act like at age twenty five”.
This is what you should be doing when you are seventeen”. But amidst all the
many voices that bark all these orders and set all of these ideals for girls
today, there lacks the voice of assurance. There is no comfort and assurance .I
want to be able to say that there are four things admirable for a women to be
at any age! Whether you are four or forty-four or nineteen! It’s always
wonderful to be elegant, it’s always fashionable to have grace, it’s always
glamorous to be brave, and it’s always important to have inspirational
changes. Women is not a bird and no net ensnares her and is free human
being with an independent will.
A WOMAN TURNS HER CANT’S INTO CANS AND HER DREAMS INTO PLANS.
There is no force equal to that of a determined WOMEN.I am PROUD to be a
WOMEN.

I just wanna tell you all that
In this generation everyone has a feeling to help others but due to some shyness
everyone don't put out there feeling of helping others. So we the people of
Friends Of Needy have come up whit an idea which will let you inculcate
helping nature in you automatically and with which you can get a satisfaction
that you have helped someone today before you go to bed.
We are already trying this with some school kids and we have got a good response
from all of them and I really thank and congratulate them for the efforts which
they have put forward for us and our India.
Our plan is very simple we just make to make a habit of donating atleast 1 or 2
rupees from your daily life with which you will be able to donate around Rs. 50
per month and get a satisfaction of helping others and with which you can
inculcate helping nature in you.
With which we can hopes for a bright and better future without any egos and
without any small problems in our society.... cause we are the creators of
tomorrow. So I would like to introduce this in VJIT with this opportunity
PARENTS
By

I don’t know why this generation kids (not all) don’t respect their parents.
Parents do a lot of sacrifices for us. We are very lucky to have them in our
lives. There are so many kids who are orphans. Who doesn’t have parents to
care of them? They are left alone either on the roads or in an orphanage. Just
look into the eyes of these orphans when they see other children with their
parents. That feeling no one can understand even god. We are blessed to have
parents. When the kids grow up I don’t know why they send their parents to
an old age home. Can’t you find a little bit of time in your busy schedule to
spend some time with them?? Just don’t forget whatever you are today is just
because of your parents, not because of your hard work or anything. In this
old age they need us. I pity on such people who have everything but doesn’t
know how to take care or respect their parents. Look into the eyes of the
parents whose kids ask them to join in an orphanage. Don’t you feel guilty?
They did so much to us and are this the way we respect? I think such kind of
kids is worse than orphans. They don’t deserve anything. I just wanted to say
that before insulting or leaving your parents in an old age home just think
what all they did for you throughout your life and all those kids who don’t
have parents.
