I did not pay a bribe to police for a traffic ciolation
I am politician,(visit www.narayanan4india.com) I was in USA for 13 years, between 1975 - 88 and came back to serve the country through politics. No one in my family has ever been involved in politics. My brothers are IITans. My father was gold medalist and was an honest officer fo Madras EB where he retired as a SE.
This happended to ne in the mid 90s where I was travelling in the scooter in Chennai near Central station. I crossed a place where I am not supposed to cross and was stopped by a police man. He told me I need to pay a fine of Rs.100/- I said I will pay, how ever he said he can let me off if I pay a BRIBE of Rs.50/- I refused to pay the bribe. He negotiated and offered to take rs. 25/. I still refused. Then he got on the pillion and asked me to go the nearest police station. I started riding to a police station. when we went near a traffic light, he asked me to pay Rs,10/. When, I refused he just got off my bike and walked away..
The moral of the story is even if we made mistake if we are willing to pay for it we DONOT HAVE TO BRIBEANY ONE
