More than 80% of schools in India are managed by the government.

Most of the villages in India do not have proper schools.

17

CORRUPTION

Corruption in India is a major issue that adversely affects its economy.

CORRUPTION

Corruption in the Indian society has prevailed from time immemorial in one form or the other.

The basic inception of corruption started with our opportunistic leaders who have already done greater damage to our nation.

19

CORRUPTION

People who work on right principles are unrecognized and considered to be foolish in the modern society.

Corruption in India is a result of the connection between bureaucrats, politicians and criminals.

20

MEASURES TO CONTROL CORRUPTION

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. 

21

MEASURES TO CONTROL CORRUPTION

Much time should not elapse between the registration of a case and the delivery of judgment.

 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.

VIOLENCE

Behaviour involving physical force intended to hurt, damage, or kill someone or something.

23

VIOLENCE

Violence is defined by the World Health Organization as "the intentional use of physical force or power, threatened or actual, against oneself, another person, or against a group or community.

Globally, violence resulted in the death of 1.28 million people in 2013 up from 1.13 million in 1990.

Young people have energy to try out things and the patience to learn from mistakes.
