When people say they want to see the corruption free India I ask them do you really mean it? Even if you do, how you are going to do it? Unfortunately, they don’t know how to answer this question. It takes a lot of courage to take the responsibility to eliminate the social evils from the society. When I say courage that means i am talking about Satyendra Dubey. Satyendra Dubey was a man of principles who got killed for doing something good for the society.
Who Is Satyendra – Early Life

He belonged to a poor family where his father worked in a sugar mill. He was the eldest among his 5 sisters and a brother. Satyendra had always been a hard working and a diligent student. He had to face many hardships due to financial instability and family responsibilities.

His life literally changed when he found out that people from top to bottom are involved in deep corruption. He found out financial discrepancies and improper use of government funds. He decided to take this matter to the higher officials but in return, he was give transfer from Jharkhand to Gaya, Bihar. However, this was not going to stop him from fighting against the corruption. He later figured out that not only a district or town but also the entire country is dealing with this evil.
Finally, he decided to bring this issue to the prime Minister’s office. He mentioned everything in his letter and requested the PMO not to reveal his identity. However, the PMO did actually opposite what he asked for. They forwarded his letter to the concerned authorities with his name on it and this led the mafias aware about him.
