Political Scandal

A political scandal refers to a public controversy or an incident involving alleged misconduct, corruption, or unethical behavior by politicians or government officials. Such scandals often attract media attention and can undermine public trust in governmental institutions or leaders. Political scandals can involve various issues, including bribery, fraud, abuse of power, sexual misconduct, or violations of law or ethical standards. The implications of a political scandal can be significant, potentially leading to resignations, impeachments, or changes in policies, and they often provoke public outrage and demand for accountability.
