How principle of Gandhi Ji can solve problems of my country?

Truth, non-violence and Love were Gandhi Ji’s main tool which he practiced and preached till last moment of his life. Let us try to understand concept of Truth proposed by him.

Gandhi Ji studied whole India after coming from India and found that to fight with British we should be fearless. Fearlessness will come in a person if person is full of truth. And we see how this produced great leaders and they fought for cause our country. In India everyone is suffering from fear e.g. fear of bad health, fear of losing, fear of untoward incident like accident, theft, being killed etc. This fear creates byproduct like corruption. Let us think how fear and corruption is related. Fear which we saw earlier is fear due uncertain future. To secure this uncertainty everyone is striving to earn more and more money in less time. Job holders want to earn more money in less time by doing all sort of bad means like taking bribe and business wants high return. Country which are developed has more certain future so less corruption because people have in their system. In those countries businesses are running with as low return as 5%. Less fear or fearlessness is equivalent to certainty and believe in system / governance and thus less corruption.

Truth is to understand oneself and this is equivalent to fearlessness and certainty and so no corruption.

Let us practice and preach Gandhi Ji concept of truth and certainly it will solve the most serious problem of corruption.
