1)Introduction
Here I hit the central theme of the topic. For example if topic is corruption in Pakistan I will write as

"Pakistan is a country where corruption has become a norm. All dreams of progress and prosperity has been ruined because of this menace. The founder of nation once pointed out it as the most threatening social problem but no successive government succeeded in taking effective steps for its erosion. Resultantly institutions and personalities failed to step forward. Politicians are corrupt because they have an easy escape: naming the case as political vendetta and to get a clean chit from court is sufficient to prove them innocent. A bureaucrat has an excuse that he can't do his duty by confronting the political elites. Generals are also not any exception.
2)thesis statement Is it really become a norm in Pakistani society? Are we unable to get rid of it? To explore the answers of such questions we have to scrutinize the whole plethora of corruption in Pakistan.

3)definition: 'Corruption is misuse of Public office to gain personal benefits on behalf of national exchequer' as Transparency International defines it. But a sociologist consider it as any act of omission or commission that derails the norms of society is corruption. Interestingly psychologists consider all acts as corruption which are in less pure state than more pure state. Generally corruption is ignoring the truth and reality to get money and power, prestige. It is any thing which characterless people perform to get riches, fame!!

3)types and kinds): Although it is bad in every form but it is worse when it involves politics when politicians use wine, wealth and women to win election. It gave birth to nepotism which means to give administrative posts to those who don't deserve that. It ends up meritocracy in administrative set-up. While weak administrators can't control corruption of professionals and tax evasion. Its classic example can be seen in political rigging case in 1990 election after that the graph of corruption was always on rise in Pakistan.

4)History of corruption in Pakistan): Not to say that before 1990 Pakistan was free from it__but there were some years when it was reduced. Actually it started in Pakistan three decades before the creation of Pakistan when Britishers were loosing their grip and land grabbers, corrupt contractors started making money by taking benefit of it. Corruption was little known before the regime of Ayoub Khan. During his regime it was used as political vendetta: no doubt. March 21 1959 martial law authorities enforced PRODA to disqualify politicians. It was December 1 1969 when 300 class I gazetted officers allegedly involved in corruption were suspended. But governmental efforts failed. In 70's the policy of nationalization failed because of corruption. In 80's loose administration, kilashankove culture, heroin business introduced many dangerous ways of making money to mullah and military. "Military Inc inside Pakistan" a famous book states that soon military turn into a giant which has massive share of 6% in GDP and control of economic conditions of country. Rise in economic gap between rich and poor engulfed the moral values. Law lacunae, no single agency to control corruption and many such causes slowly gave corruption a pattern of some norm in Pakistani society.

(by this way i write definition, history, types and kinds. it is known as exposition part of essay. i think it is most important part because it creates first impression on examiner so it should be prepared for every topic. rest i m surprised why sir abidi said that .)

One should personally visit him (Sir Razi Abidi) and get these points acknowledged by him after understanding his logic/justification for his verdict, if in any case he owns these points (which he won’t own, I feel).
