Abstract

Corruption is an abomination of society that exists in every system in the globe, including the governance systems. Pakistan, being a part of global society, is also affected by it. Our legal system has a colonial feel to it and is rooted in the United Kingdom era. The governments of several eras established commissions, issued laws to combat this social ill, and vigorously prosecuted them in order to give the populace of the nation access to free and open justice. The goal of the current study, "Dimensions of the Corruption in Pakistan," is to categorize the various ways that corruption has affected Pakistan's government structure. It was also discovered that efforts have been made by both the current and previous Pakistani administrations to lessen corruption by means of the country's legal system. In this context, the 2009 judicial policy has been particularly beneficial.
