Bribery is widely and shamelessly rampant in our country. There seems no period vacant from the evil in the history of the country. In the present era, the evil of bribery is more evidently 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, meager salaries, lustful activities, materialistic inclinations, ever growing desires and finally lack contentment and lack of deep sense of religious injunctions.
The solution lies in the sole implementation of Islamic laws in true spirit, besides simplifying the office procedures. All complaints regarding bribery should be brought to light and cases must be decided within seven days. If the concerned authorities take proper measures in this regard, this social evil will decrease definitely.
