It is very unfortunate that these things have become part and parcel of the system

Well, they all Ask for money and if you don't give them one then probably you end of waiting ages for a passport. My wife had recently changed her First name and got her passport on post police verification. The enquiry officer came to our place with an impression that the passport is due to be issued on police clearance so he started pointing out unnecessary things in the application and when we mentioned him that the passport is already issued, he had a long face and started giving us stupid stories and most of all the funniest thing is he's mentioned us that If a person has recently travelled to some country then his/her permanent address should be that of Visiting country and temporary address be home one. We knew he was talking all rubbish just to take some money from us before he leaves and he did charged us something around INR 500/-

It is very unfortunate that these things have become part and parcel of the system and no matter how serious measures are implemented within the system to restrain these activities yet there will be someone from amongst them to find a way to abuse the system to feed their beer belly.
