| Every year we observe Vigilance awareness Week in the last week of October . Do you know why we observe Vigilance Awareness week every year in the last week of October? The Vigilance Awareness Week is inspired by the outstanding achievements of Shri Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel the first Dy. Prime Minister of India and Home Minister of India who was a great political and social leader of India who played a major role in the country's struggle for Independence and was known as "Iron Man of India". The beginning of Vigilance Awareness Week corresponds with the birthday of this great leader, Statesman and Administrator. This year the theme is "Integrity - A way of Life.
You all would be thinking that after all what is Integrity. The sad thing is that if you ask some people what integrity means to them, they will probably tell you that it doesn't mean much and some many not even know what integrity is. Integrity is how somebody lives their life. In this life we live, we face choices every day that only we can answer.
All the greatest achievers in the history of mankind are men and women of unimpeachable integrity. Mahatma Gandhi, Abraham Lincoln, Madame Currie, Louis Pasteur, Winston Churchill, Dr. Graham Bell, Einstein, Addison, etc.
Certain people feel that in order to get ahead in life they need to break certain rules. Integirity means moral soundness, honesty, and freedom from corrupting influence. Thus Integrity goes closely to the honesty. Our personal integrity can only be formed by ourselves. Nobody can control out integrity. The ones who value their integrity highly are the good people in this world, and the opposite is true for those who do not value their integrity. We live in a world where integrity isn't talked about nearly enough. We live in a world where "the end justifies the means" has become an acceptable school of thought for far too many. Honesty is very important in the development of people`s conscience. Honesty is a path to many things such as knowledge, academic goal`s truth and understanding. Every one person who trusts you will spread the word of that trust to at least a few of their associates, and word of your character will spread like wildfire.
Today Integrity is the most agreeable and demanding quality. People who have this are in high demand. Through integrity one can make great achievements. Integrity is the miracle lamp of Aladdin, with which one can achieve anything one want. Integrity means fruit on the tree of industry, dedication to perseverance and excellence. Integrity is how someone lives their lives. In this life we live, we face choices every day that can only be answered. We dictate how we live our lives, and the way we conduct them defines us. Integrity is doing the right thing against the wrong thing. People, if nothing else, can always have their pride, their integrity. It means a lot to some people and then nothing to others. Those who value their integrity the most are good people in this world, and those who do not value their integrity are the opposite.
It is therefore necessary that a citizen who wants to fight corruption must first decide that he will uphold his moral character and he will not give a bribe or take a bribe. Basically most of us are selfish. When we face a problem, we are interested in finding immediate solutions.
We must realize that as an organization, we need to lead from the front in fighting corruption and in maintaining highest standards of integrity, transparency and good governance in all aspect of our operations. Friends, Success Will Come and Go, but our integrity remains forever. Profit in dollars or power is temporary, but profit in a network of people who trust you as a person of integrity is forever. |
