TYPES OF CORRUPTION
Political Corruption
Political corruption is the abuse of public power, office, or resources by elected government officials for personal gain, e.g. by extortion, soliciting or offering bribes.
It can also take the form of office holders maintaining themselves in office by purchasing votes by enacting laws which use taxpayers' money.
Evidence suggests that corruption can have political consequences- with citizens being asked for bribes becoming less likely to identify with their country or region.
JUDICIAL CORRUPTION Judicial corruption refers to corruption related
misconduct of judges, through receiving or giving bribes, improper sentencing of convicted criminals, bias in the hearing and judgement of arguments and other such misconduct.
Governmental corruption of judiciary is broadly known in many transitional and developing countries because the budget is almost completely controlled by the executive.
The latter undermines the separation of powers, as it creates a critical financial dependence of the judiciary.
The proper national wealth distribution including the government spending on the judiciary is subject of the constitutional economics.
Police Corruption Police corruption is a specific form of police misconduct
designed to obtain financial benefits, other personal gain,and/or career advancement for a police officer orofficers in exchange for not pursuing, or selectivelypursuing, an investigation or arrest.
One common form of police corruption is soliciting and/oraccepting bribes in exchange for not reporting organizeddrug or prostitution rings or other illegal activities.
Another example is police officers flouting the policecode of conduct in order to secure convictions ofsuspects — for example, through the use of falsifiedevidence.
More rarely, police officers may deliberately and systematically participate in organized crimethemselves.

What government should
do Strong and stringent laws need to be enacted which gives no room for the
guilty to escape.
Establishment of special courts for speedy justice can be a huge positive aspect. Much time should not elapse between the registration of a case and the delivery of judgment.
In many cases, the employees opt for corrupt means out of compulsion and not by choice. Some people are of the opinion that the wages paid are insufficient to feed their families. If they are paid better, they would not be forced to accept bribe.
The one thing that needs to be ensured is proper, impartial, and unbiased use of various anti-social regulations to take strong, deterrent, and timely legal action against the offenders, irrespective of their political influences or money power.
In many ways, having a more simple and straightforward bureaucracy –which is incredibly easier today with digital technology – is one of the most effective ways to fight corruption in India.
