Abribe was requested by the official registering a partnership - in West Bengal. My Indian partner and I, a UK citizen, refused to pay and used our influence to over-awe the bribe-requester.
I write this because I am listening to the BBC Radio 4 programme - Your MOney - coming from New Delhi as I write. I wish to make the fundamental point that Indian corruption at the "retail" level is simply a form of discretionary transaction tax. If the vast civil service of India were reformed so that people worked each hour they were paid - and were paid for each hour they worked - and were paid a decent salary, the culture of bribery would decline rapidly, and disappear in a generation. Higher government salaries require an effective and very widely based tax system - both on transactions and on income. These forms of taxation are hopelessly disorganised in India. That, in my view, is the root of the problem.
Respected sir,
i am a student of tolani college sir,(this all are going on in andheri reservation booking office) sir especially tatkal quota tickects are less available and it takes nearly 12 hour to stay at station as it is unbearable to inform u that the constables of railway police force and booking officers are involved in corruption
as further i like to inform u that as per the rule one person can give one form when he is in counter but the agents are giving 4 to five forms at a time which unable the public to get confirmed reservation tickects even if they are staying nearly 12 hour in que and the same person who is doing this you can see daily in que if public does'nt allow or ask about it to the officers involved in corruption they regert the form by the person who wants a confirm tickect
kindly look after this matter and if you want to confirm it you can see it in andheri station when tatkal tickect are being given please look after it and take possible action
I applied for Renewal of Trade License on 30/4/2013 by taking a DD for Rs. 3000/- as Renewal License fee in BBMP favour. It was tough time to trace the BBMP Office as it had shifted and there was no notification of the same.
When i went to the concerned BBMP office at Austin Town, Bangalore, the officer incharge of Birth and Death (as the concerned Health Inspector was not there at that time) asked me to pay Bribe to the cashier to remit the License Fee. I paid 50/- rs. to the cashier and had to wait for 35 minutes to get the receipt.
Later i had to followup with the Health Inspector for almost 45 days and today i got the renewal, which is just an entry in the original certificate with seal. Today the Health Inspector demanded 1500/- rs. but finally i negotiated for 500/- rs. and got it done.
One surprising fact is there is no information about Vigilance cell contact details in the BBMP Website nor in the local Austin Town Office.
today i asked one of my known person for arranging me some packets of coins from sbi main branch i was told by that person that the person incharge there will ask for one bottle of alchohol as a bribe for issuing that packet even after paying all the amount of the cost of that packet
While travelling from Bhopal, the capital of Madhya Pradesh to Bina a place 139 KMs from Bhopal, as it was a unplanned journey, I had to travel along with my wife and kids, with a unreserved ticket. The price I paid for the ticket was around Rs 140.00 and with reservation it is not more than Rs 450. As it was hardly few minutes for the train to depart from Bhopal Station, we boarded in a reserved, sleeper coach. During the visit of TTE (till then we have crossed the half of the way to our destination) I voluntary revealed that I am travelling with a ticket of general class and I am willing to pay the difference amount of the cost of tickets. Primarily the TTE denied stating that there is no vacant seat in the same coach, and I will have to change the same and I can continue travelling in the same coach by just paying Rs 200.00 extra (that would be without any official receipt) instead of Rs 240.00. I insisted on paying the full amount with the official receipt and was willing to continue travelling in the same coach as my wife had a place to sit.
While I forwarded him a note of Rs 500.00 with an expectation of getting a return of the change of Rs 260.00 and the receipt for the amount, he smiled and said “ SIR AAP TO SEAT BHI NAHI LE RAHE HE, ME PURE PAISE KAISE LE LU” he just moved ahead returning me the balance of Rs 300.00.
