The dictionary defined integrity as soundness of moral principles, the character of uncorrupted virtues; uprightness; honesty, sincerity”. Integrity is indeed, the most essential attribute of a welfare state. The first five year plan rightly emphasized: Integrity in public affairs and administration is essential and there must, therefore, be an insistence on it in every branch by public activity. The influence on corruption is insidious. It undermines the structure of administration and the confidence of the public in the administration.
