Reported on April 19, 2019 from Chennai , Tamil Nadu  ι Report #203724

I have applied for Driving License Extract for using the same in abroad for Licensing purpose. I have paid Rs.40 DL Extract and Rs.100 for Convenience fee online.
I went to Tambaram RTO office for submitting application. I was asked to meet the Section Clerk: Mr. Sekhar for the same. When I asked the same with Mr. Sekhar on 23rd December, he asked me to meet after December 25th, since it was Holiday week. Visited him again on 28th December. He said to meet after January 1st and gave me contact no. I visited him again on January 3rd and again he said to come next week. I have called him multiple times during this week to confirm if I can collect the extract. He answered 2 times and asked me to come next day and from 3rd day he blocked my no. I visited him and routed me to the agent outside the gate. The Agent asked for Rs.600 at 11 AM and I waited till 3 PM, since there was no response I went to home and came back again at 5 PM. The agent asked me to wait till 6 PM and then at 7 PM he took Rs.400 more from me and gave me the DL extract.
