Indian laws are full of loopholes is one of the reason for corruption.

In India, we pay bribe to do legal work.
In India, we pay more bribes to convert illegal work into legal work by using loopholes or pay bribe so government officers will not take any action on illegal activities and constructions.
Thus, overall 99% corruption you can find in India at every place.
Top to bottom everyone says Jai Ho corruption
