Passport

Reported on November 21, 2013 from Kolkata , West Bengal  ι Report #37779

I applied for the Passport for the first time in August 2009. For Police verification, the person was trying to find any whatsoever reason to reject the documents and ask for the bribe. But at last, he couldn't convinced me for any missing documents. Then he tried to show that Durga Puja is coming nearby and inflation has risen a lot and then he asked for some "Chai Paani to do sahab (a common attempt to ask for the bribe)", then i immediately ask our servant to prepare tea for that guy. He was looking me shockingly. And then he was unable to ask for bribe directly as many male member of my family stood beside me.

Atlast he had to go empty hand.

Request all to not to pay bribe and report any such incident to Police. Especially in case of passport, try to keep a camera or Sound recorder along with you and catch the person red handed and report to police. All such officials will then fear from asking bribe.

Jai Hind!!!
