Bribery 
Bribery:
Bribery is broadly and brashly widespread in our country. In the present era, the evil of bribery is more manifestly present in the developing countries. However, bribery has appeared not from any void, but it takes its roots from the society concerned. Bribery is the result of red-tapeism, low salaries, immoral activities, materialistic preferences, ever growing desires and finally lack of satisfaction and lack of deep sense of religious injunctions .
Corruption in Pakistan is common, particularly in the government and lower levels of police forces. The country has had a consistently poor ranking on the Transparency International Corruption Perceptions Index, with scores of 2.5 in 2011, 2.3 in 2010, and 2.5 in 2009, out of 10. In 2011, Pakistan ranked 134 on the index with 42 countries ranking worse. In 2012, Pakistan’s ranking dropped even further from 134 to 139, making Pakistan the 34th most corrupt country in the world, tied with Azerbaijan, Kenya, Nepal, and Nigeria.
According to calculations performed by Transparency International, Pakistan has lost an unbelievably high amount, more than Rs8.5 trillion (US $94 billion), in corruption, tax evasion and bad governance during the last four years of ex-Prime Minister Yousaf Raza Gillani tenure. An adviser of Transparency International acknowledged that “Pakistan does not need even a single penny from the outside world if it effectively checks the menace of corruption and ensures good governance”. The Transparency International also noted that the four and half years of the past regime under Gillani had been the worst in terms of corruption and bad governance in the country’s history. Recently NAB chairman, a very respected and fair individual, declared that corruption to the tune of 40 billion US dollars was being done annually in the country.
Not surprisingly, every noble profession in Pakistan is reduced to two syllables of unadulterated shame: Rishvat. Police officers have greased hands,
