42% of the worlds poor live in India. There is very cheap labour, and extreme social inequality.
To give you an idea, a primary school teacher in an average school makes about $200-$300/month. With this type of pay scale for most middle class professions, there will be corruption. A traffic cop can make 3 months salary by pulling over a few guys speeding in their BMW's and taking a bribe from them, so why won't he, especially since the current system supports it.
Also, our judicial system in India is broken; it takes years(5-10) for any court case to get resolved, which is another problem since the corrupt don't get prosecuted in a timely manner.
