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.

Technology can play as a great tool to reduce corruption. First and the prior most important thing is to change the perception and the mind set of individuals. Its can used in school to help the students to learn about the importance of honesty and how to raise voice against it by filing a complaint easily through use of computer
Proper management should be done so that the worm of corruption can be evaded from our country.

Corruption, in any form is everywhere but to control, everyone has own mechanism. My ideas are..
1. Promote private organizations that can be helpful to reduce hard money i.e. PayTM, BharatQR, WhatsAPP's money tranfer feature
2. Provide card swipe machine as easy as everyone can afford with very minimal/basic charge on transaction
3. Review digital transaction policies quarterly to monitor and promote specific sector to maximize coverage
4. Maximize shoppers digital wallet limit

देश में बहुत भ्रष्टाचार है और इसकी दर हर दिन तेज़ी से बढ़ रही है। आम आदमी भ्रष्ट राजनेताओं के हाथों पीड़ित है जो केवल अपने स्वार्थी उद्देश्यों को पूरा करने में रुचि रखते हैं। मेरे सपनों का भारत भ्रष्टाचार से मुक्त होगा। यह एक ऐसा देश होगा जहां लोगों की भलाई सरकार का एकमात्र एजेंडा होगी|

Like how the limit is fixed for drawing cash from banks, there should be a limit to keep cash at houses (considering his monthly income) office, business place etc (to be fixed by taking daily turnover.) Having more money leads to corruption and unaccounted money, to be published severely.
This will encourage e-transactions also.
At the time of raide by Income tax authority also it will be helpful.

There should be an entrance exam for any type of political most including Panchayat Pradahan. If any criminal case is there he should be eligible for any of the post. Police should be given super power and politician will not be able to control Police force any way but the vice versa. Income equilibrium and proper education and philosophy is the most wanted thing for a corruption free country. In very block there should a physical forum where people can told there issues with immediate action.

Govt has introduced some portal site like pgportal. gov. In or dpg.gov.in. Its a great work and we can write our complain through this site. But one thing should be noted that in BHARAT how many people know about it. I think very rare. So this system should be spread all over the country. We may take help of print media. all the govt step over corruption should be indicated in news at least every 10 to 15 days in a month and also assurance from govt that there name should be kept cofidential.
