Paid 510 rs bribe at Registrar's office in Bijapur to issue Marriage cerficate.

Reported on August 18, 2014 from Bijapur , Karnataka  ι Report #42909

I could get the certificate only after I paid total of Rs 700 to the Government official for accounts who sits beside the Registrar in the Bijapur City office ( Registrar office is on Sholapur Road, behind BLDEA medical college) , the government charges are 190Rs fee but they demanded 700Rs, when I asked why, they said 300 Rs needs to be given to Registrar. So the rest 510 Rs went into Registrar's Pocket, this is Rampant there and its a standard fee if you approach them directly.

If you try to get it through Agent the agent demands 1000 rs flat.Many of my friends paid the bribe, even some of them complained but the issue was not addressed.
