Police at naka bandi asked for bribe for expired PUC

Reported on June 22, 2012 from Mumbai , Maharashtra  ι Report #1421

I was driving to work and was stopped at a nakabandi near Oshiwara, goregaon west. The poilce officer asked me for the papers. i.e. drivers license, insurance, PUC and car registration. I had all documents except my PUC had expired. The cop told me that I had to pay a fine of Rs 2000 for not having the PUC. I was surprised as I did not think fine for not having PUC could be as high. I was in a hurry to get to work for important meeting. And hence had to bribe. Is the fine really that high? where can I find list of offences and corresponding fines? I looked up on trafficpolicemumbai.org.. There is no mention of PUC in relation to a fine.
