Revision of Composition #6

Power makes many people blind.It does not matter in what field of jobs,because some people are easily captivated by corruption anyhow.They lose the sense of right or wrong,become dishonest,and take the advantage of power illegaly.I know a political leader from Bangladesh who had been abusing power by getting corrupted.I am going to depict the rise and fall of his power.
Every city in the world elects a person as a Mayor so that he or she can make the city life better.Arif Chowdhury,a political leader was once elected as the Mayor of Sylhet City about four years ago.He was a social worker as well as a the student leader in his early life.He had been doing so many good works such as for women rights,shelter for poor people etc.As time passed by,he bacame one of the candidates in the Mayor election.He committed to change the entire Sylhet city into something special.And he was elected as the Mayor by many votes.
As a Mayor,Arif Chowdhury was really doing fine.However,things had changed after six months of his reign.Gradually, it seemed that he had become reluctant all of a sudden.He stopped meeting with people who had problems to tell him;his friendship turned out to be with rich people and did not care to solve any troubles for poor people anymore.Moreover, he had his own gang scattered all ovre the city.These were just the simple things that were visible to us.
Everyone was surprised after knowing more secrets about the Mayor, Arif Chowdhury.He had been taking huge amount of bribes in order to give contracts to people for contruction works, owned the land from poor hopeless people by tricking them, taking unnecessary loand from banks, and the major part was that he had been storing all the ration that came from government in order to provide to the helpless.All these would never have been disclosed if he was not caught red handed by the CID(Criminal Investigation Department.)After tracing all the evidence of his illegal deeds, the secret service CID had arranged a plot where Arif Chowdhury wanted to take bribe from a building constuctor in terms of giving him the contract.Overall, he contravened the laws in many ways and preassumably defrauded 10 million taka in Bangladesh currency.Now, he is imprisoned for nine years.
In every bad deeds there must be a downfall at a certain point.It is like a mountain has its peak where it goes down after a steep inclination.Being enticed to the blindness of the power,Arif Chowdhury lost his ethics, honesty,ideals, and sought more power.As a result,he had seen the extreme devastation.That is why Plato,a famous philosopher said that power seekers,corrupted people, and more educated people cannot be good leaders but the one who only seeks to serve people without looking for his or her own benefit.
