Corruption in India is a major issue that adversely affects its economy.〔 A study conducted by Transparency International in year 2005 found that more than 62% of Indians had first hand experience of paying bribes or influence peddling to get jobs done in public offices successfully.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Transparency International – the global coalition against corruption )〕 In its study conducted in year 2008, Transparency International reports about 40% of Indians had firsthand experience of paying bribes or using a contact to get a job done in public office.〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher=Transparency International )〕 In 2015, India was ranked 85th out of 175 countries in Transparency International's Corruption Perceptions Index, compared to its neighbors Bhutan (30th), Bangladesh (145th), Myanmar (156th), China (100th), Nepal (126th), Pakistan (126th) and Sri Lanka (85th). This is the second least corruption rank for India in the whole of South Asia.〔(CORRUPTION PERCEPTIONS INDEX 2014: RESULTS )〕 In 2013, India was ranked 94th out of 175 countries.〔(India ranks 85th in global corruption index; Denmark retains top spot )〕 Most of the largest sources of corruption in India are entitlement programmes and social spending schemes enacted by the Indian government. Examples include Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act and National Rural Health Mission.〔〔 Other daily sources of corruption include India's trucking industry which is forced to pay billions in bribes annually to numerous regulatory and police stops on its interstate highways.〔 Indian media has widely published allegations of corrupt Indian citizens stashing trillions of dollars in Swiss banks. Swiss authorities, however, deny these allegations. The Indian media is mainly owned by corrupt politicians and industrialists who also play a major role in most of these scams, thus misleading public with wrong information and using media for mudslinging against their political and business opponents.〔〔 The causes of corruption in India include excessive regulations, complicated taxes and licensing systems, numerous government departments each with opaque bureaucracy and discretionary powers, monopoly by government controlled institutions on certain goods and services delivery, and the lack of transparent laws and processes.〔〔 There are significant variations in level of corruption as well as in state government efforts to reduce corruption across India. ==Politics== As of December 2009, 120 of India's 524 parliament members were accused of crimes, under India's First Information Report procedure wherein anyone can allege another of committing a crime. Many of the biggest scandals since 2010 have involved very high level government officials, including Cabinet Ministers and Chief Ministers, such as in the 2G spectrum scam (), the 2010 Commonwealth Games scam (), the Adarsh Housing Society scam, the Coal Mining Scam (), the Mining Scandal in Karnataka and the Cash for Vote scam. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Corruption in India」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
