Vehicle Transport of railways are completely corrupted

Reported on January 25, 2016 from Chennai , Tamil Nadu  ι Report #90536

After going to station for vehicle transport some agents gathered and asked information, they won't allow us to go to booking office for information, they acted like they are railway luggage persons, they took bike went through the process of booking, even though all the documents are correct like RC, proof, ticket, they demanded 1600 for the process which included booking packing and delivery,
I saw that agent giving money to RPF official to do signature on the paper. Also they removed petrol completed, when i asked to give petrol to me (i can give to my friend who came to drop me) they denied to give to me telling they should not give petrol and have to submit to RPF officials,(Even they are selling the petrol which is taken from bikes).
Later i got the receipt of luggage booking, i am shocked to see the amount is 197 rs only, instead they charged me 1600. Later they booked and vehicle boarded in the train. I went on the same train which is Lalbagh train going from chennai(MAS) to Bangalore(SBC).
After getting down i went to parcel office, they to give gate pass they demanded 200 /-, when i ask them why, they said unloading charges. I paid and came back with gate pass, they my bike is unloading, i met a person who unloaded my bike, he took me to out side for exit, at gate a RPF officer need to do signature he demanded for 20/- again, after coming out of station the person who unloaded my bike demanded 400 saying unloading and unpacking charges.

Why these people are complete corrupted, please senior officials do some thing.
Railways is getting 197/- but we are spending thousands to do vehicle transport because of these corrupted officials.
