Reported on July 12, 2014 from Chennai , Tamil Nadu  ι Report #42005

I received a mail from Ayapakkam panchayat to pay property tax. As a moral, educated and responsible citizen I calculated my tax online and went straight to the panchayat office to pay it. The officer there said I need to pay Rs. 2057 which almost matched my calculation. When I was about to pay him, he said " wait a minute you still have to pay Rs.8000 towards maintenance fee". I was totally confused and called up my builder and asked why should I pay so much. Then the builder says that a way to ask bribe. I said I cant pay and left the place. Now I really want to pay that Rs. 2057 to the government. What should I do now? I will never pay the bribe.

What is your reaction after reading this report?
