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.

There should be a platform to allot any kind of a budget to any respective sector through a system, where it should be audited timely (may be each quarter) and that should be made public every budget, this will create transparency and trust for almost every Indian citizen. This will also improve governance as every thing will be in control (may be this is where we can make use of blockchain - the finest method for keeping a check on trail). This may also help the government to trace the corrupt.

We can reduce the corruption by paperless transactions but low and middle class ppl are really worried about the banks rules and also the tax rates of the Gov because if the tax rates are high,How can any person with the common sense can deposit money in bank?Many of the developed countries are having low corruption rate only because taxes are low.I understand Gov need income but that doesnt mean ppl should suffer.Gov should look for the other ideas,areas to generate income not only indstrialion

1. At first all the places like Taluk offices, Gram Panchayats,etc.. are should be modernized with Computer systems and all works to be done online. 2.The rupee notes more than 200 should be banned.For transactions more than this should be carried through digital money. 3. All the works done by the government (I mean transactions) like roads, bridge s,etc.should be paid to the respective contractors through online only.(This increase the online transactions). Thank you for reading my Ideas.

In general market, their are lots of traders who generate GST credit by way of purchase. They purchase Bills only from the market not purchase material from the manufacturers or suppliers and them sales material on cash. Material buy by others and bills buy others. This type of transaction has nowadays going on. How to stop this? very big transaction is operating.

We can prevent tax evasion using blockchain technology and changing the tax assessment mechanism. I am a chartered accountant student researching on the topic for the last 4 years, we started a blockchain company for the research and development

Every bank has to be audited by govt of India cost and audit department . Govt of India is the sole responsible for that. Centralized banking monitoring system has to be developed and report must be scrutinized by RBI. cashless marketing has to be encourage by reducing the fees of online transaction. Digital signature and cashless transaction for the loan has to be applied in case of more than crore. Inter brunch Transferable job is required for higher officials of bank in every years.

Respected sir, The highest no. Of corruption has been undertaken in all the government units by the gov employees who had been doing their job very leisurely except leaving few rest of them never come on time, nor start their work soon or never respond properly to the citizens or customers because the main reason is their job security that once the get their job they r least concerned about the government official works or the citizens so the won't be given job security if non perform fired
