Hi Raghu. What are the various steps involved in police verification.

Reported on June 15, 2011 from Bangalore , Karnataka  ι Report #33706


The Ministry of External Affairs of India has a Passport Seva Portal which explains the entire passport process in detail with the help of flow charts and animation. The address of the website is as follows: http://passportindia.gov.in



The website clearly mentions that the police is supposed to verify the details and documents of the applicant and that it does not require the applicant to produce himself before the police. However, is most cases, the police violate this provision and try to demand bribes, mainly because they are confident that the applicants are ignorant of the rules.

What is your reaction after reading this report?
