Political Scandal

A political scandal refers to a significant incident or series of events involving allegations of wrongdoing, corrupt behavior, or unethical conduct by individuals in positions of political power, such as government officials, politicians, or public servants. These scandals often involve actions that violate legal or ethical standards and can include corruption, bribery, misuse of power, or personal misconduct. Political scandals typically attract public attention and media scrutiny, leading to investigations, loss of credibility, and in some cases, resignation or impeachment of the involved parties. The implications of a political scandal can affect governance, political relationships, public trust in institutions, and often result in social and political upheaval.
