  • Corruption in India: Bridging Research Evidence and Policy Options
    Corruption in India: Bridging Research Evidence and Policy Options Sandip Sukhtankar1 Milan Vaishnav2 April 27, 2015 Abstract Corruption has become an increasingly salient issue in India today, spawning both enormous interest from the media as well as a large amount of academic research. Yet there is a large gap between what has captured the media’s attention, the policy options under discussion, and the actual evidence base drawn from empirical research on corruption. We attempt to bridge this gap, directly addressing the particular challenges that corruption in India poses. Academic evidence supports the popular perception that corruption is widespread and endemic. However, we find that the costs of day-to-day corruption are just as large, if not larger, than those of the “scams” that dominate headlines. Further, we find that there is very little evidence to support the idea that greater transparency, information, and community based efforts have a significant impact on reducing corruption on their own. This is also true for some technological interventions, although those interventions – like direct benefit transfers – that bypass middlemen and corrupt officials have a much greater scope for success, as do interventions that transfer bargaining power to citizens and beneficiaries. We find much to commend in the sensible and wide-ranging legislative agenda to combat corruption, including the Right to Service and Public Procurement bills. However, what is most important for combating corruption is not the law on paper but the implementation of the law; the binding constraint, as always, is the government’s desire and ability to punish corrupt officials and politicians.

    The International journal of analytical and experimental modal analysis ISSN NO:0886-9367 Determinants of Voting Behaviour in the Assembly Elections in West Bengal: Theoretical Perspective Dr. Md Motibur Rahman1 Guest Faculty, Department of Geography Rajendra College, Jai Prakash University, Chapra Email: [email protected] Rumana Khatun2 Research Scholar, Department of Geography Aligarh Muslim University, Aligarh Email: [email protected] Abstract: Voting bahaviour is a form of electoral behaviour which clearly understands voter’s behaviour that can explain how and why political decision was made. Voting behaviour is also known as political psychology of the electors. The study of determinants of voting behaviour constructs a very significant area of empirical observation. Man is a rational animal in the philosophical sense of term, but he is not so rational in terms of economic and political behaviour. The study of voting behaviour displays the important facts that the behaviour of man is influenced by many socio-economic and political factors and also influences on the minds of the voters. The main purpose of the present study is to focus on the concept and definition of voting behaviour and highlight the significant factors that determine the voting behaviour in the assembly elections in West Bengal. Key Words:Assembly Election, Determinants, Electoral Geography, Voting Behaviour.
