History
The economy of India was under socialist-inspired
policies for an entire generation from the 1950s until
the 1980s. The economy was subject to extensive
regulation, protectionism, and public ownership,
leading to pervasive corruption and slow growth.
License Raj was often at the core of corruption.
The Vohra Report was submitted by the former Indian
Union Home Secretary, N.N. Vohra, in October 1993.
It studied the problem of the criminalisation of politics
and of the nexus among criminals, politicians and
bureaucrats in India.

Corruption in India
Some people in India strongly believe that the root of corruption lies at the higher levels,
and that the major conspirators have to be punished first.

Politics
Criminalization of Indian politics is a problem.
In July 2008 The Washington Post reported that
nearly a fourth of the 540 Indian
Parliament members faced criminal charges,
"including human trafficking, immigration
rackets, embezzlement, rape and even murder". At
state level, things are often worse. In
Uttar Pradesh Assembly elections 2002, candidates
with criminal records won the
majority of seats.

Bureaucracy
A 2005 study done by Transparency International (TI) in India found that
more than 50% of the people had firsthand experience of paying bribe or
peddling influence to get a job done in a public office. Taxes and bribes are
common between state borders; Transparency International estimates that
truckers pay annually $5 billion in bribes. A 2009 survey of the leading
economies of Asia, revealed Indian bureaucracy to be not just least
efficient out of Singapore, Hong Kong, Thailand, South Korea, Japan,
Malaysia, Taiwan, Vietnam, China, Philippines and Indonesia; further it was
also found that working with the India's civil servants was a "slow and
painful" process. Officials often steal state property. In Bihar, more than
80% of the subsidized food aid to poor is stolen.
