      Nice attempt. Your understanding is good, language is also fine.
      Good use of anecdotes and examples.
      After mentioning acts of corruption, also mention different qualities required for ethical behavior. You can mention Nolan committee principles.
      In the end, also mention why laws are necessary too in a civilised society.
      A brief way forward can also be mentioned emphasizing the need for both code of ethics as well as a code of conduct.
      Conclusion is good. Keep practicing. 🙂

      Decent attempt.
      Introduction is fine.
      Qualities required are also well mentioned, Nolan committee principles can be talked about.
      Use some more examples from administrative field, you can mention examples of the scams or an anecdote about any upright officer.
      Mention of laws is good, however mention that it comes into the picture post-facto whereas ethics is mostly conscience driven.
      A brief way forward can also be mentioned emphasizing the need for both code of ethics as well as a code of conduct.
      Conclusion is fine.
      Keep practicing. 🙂
