DGCA airworthiness officials in Mumbai dont work without money and bribe in kind.

Reported on December 9, 2016 from Mumbai , Maharashtra  ι Report #139161

There is DGCA office in old airport, Mumbai where lot of airlines and private aircraft operators have to visit for approvals and clearances. There is a director and other officers who don't do any work without bribe. For a small approval which is a routine, they harass people and make them run around for weeks so that they get fed up and pay them hefty bribe. Since these agencies have to visit them very often, they can not complete to anyone fearing harassment. This is limited to new Director, one Narayanan and his assistants. Condition has worsened after his posting in Mumbai last year. People are fed up and my engineer colleagues dread to visit that office. Corruption and harassment has increased in this office at Mumbai and you succumb to pressure and pay up since you have none to appeal. Someone at Delhi level must take action immediately.
