In recent times, there has been an increasing concern in India to develop effective civil service ethics, codes of conduct, transparency measures, ethics and integrity systems and anti-corruption agencies. In view of this, there is a need being felt to focus on three specific areas, which are directly relevant to the problems of internalizing integrity and ethics in the civil services. These are as follows : 1. Anticipating specific threats to ethical standards and integrity in the civil services, 2. Strengthening the ethical competence of civil servants and 3. Developing administrative processes and practices which promote ethical values and integrity in civil services. Suggest institutional measures to address the above three issues.

भारत में हाल के समय में बढ़ती चिंता रही है कि प्रभावी सिविल सेवा नैतिकता, आचरण संहिताओं, पारदर्शिता उपायों, नैतिक एवं शुचिता व्यवस्थाओं तथा भ्रष्टाचार निरोधी अभिकरणों को विकसित किया जा सके। इस परिप्रेक्ष में, तीन विशिष्ट क्षेत्रों पर ध्यान देने की आवश्यकता को महसूस किया जा रहा है जो सिविल सेवाओं में शुचिता और नैतिकता को आत्मसात् करने हेतु प्रत्यक्ष रूप से प्रासंगिक हैं। ये क्षेत्र निम्नलिखित हैं : 1. सिविल सेवाओं में, नैतिक मानकों और ईमानदारी के विशिष्ट खतरों का पूर्वानुमान करना, 2. सिविल सेवकों की नैतिक सक्षमता को सशक्त करना और 3. सिविल सेवाओं में नैतिक मूल्यों और ईमानदारी की अभिवृद्धि के लिए, प्रशासनिक प्रक्रियाओं एवं प्रथाओं का विकास करना। उपरोक्त तीन मुद्दों का हल निकालने के लिए संस्थागत उपाय सुझाइए।
