Corruption for "common people" in India- Boon or Bane??

Corruption for "common people' is a useful tool available in India for hassle-free train journey without reservation or smooth Car drive without "valid' license or to enter into property /land deal through "facilitating" agents or to get "VIP" caring treatment in any "good" Hospital & even to get entry to Medical or Engineering Colleges through "Management" quota. Idealistic view may classify all these under "bad" practices of Corruption. But on a realistic sense, India is a country where in "emergency situation" any commonner can travel in an AC or any coach without having a valid ticket by paying a "facilitation" fee (one may call it BRIBE), no fear in driving a car without License( afterall facility is available to pay to traffic police,if caught)till License is managed through RTO agents. One of my friend is having Driving License but he does not know driving ( becoz..Mera Bharat Mahan) Beyond common people DGCA officials can help you in getting Pilot License as well (that is corruption in high places).

Many renowned private Medical colleges & Engineering colleges have excellent provision to admit students of "Rich" common people through backdoor by paying a hasty sum in "cash",there are so called "counsellers" ( or Agent) available across country.Hence,no worry for Rich class of common people or such commoners who is ready to spend by availing Educational loan from Banks,even if their Sons/daughters are unable to clear any competitive exam.(a boon for EDUCATION??).

Any common people would be happy to buy a peace of land or a small residential flat, house for which "naturally" they have to go to the Registry office through Agent or Property Broker who will make one's life very easy & simpler by getting all complex procedural formalities done quickly by "Open" payment of facilitation fees at different desks,its very common & acceptable to all. No worry for common public.

Whether all above examples of "corruption" are to be taken as good "facility" for Aam Janta or not??? Aam Janta will not be able to get things done in thier complete life,had they not availed all such Provisions of facilitation,we may call it bribe or corruption in Routine.
