Executive in the Grama Panchayat demanding bribe to hand over original E Khata

Reported on July 26, 2016 from Bangalore , Karnataka  ι Report #113383

I had applied for an E-Khata at the Bettahalasuru Grama Panchayat, Tarahunse village for my plot 115 situated in Sundew Nair City. The documents were submitted 8 months ago and on 2 occasions as the concerned person had misplaced the papers. On repeated followups, the concerned person mentioned that the Ekhata is ready for collection. When I approached him for collection of the E Khata, he provided me the photocopy and in case I needed the original he I had to pay him INR 3000. Online the conversion of paper khata into electronic form has a fee of INR 50 only. It is rather shocking that this person is demanding INR 3000 to do his job which the government pays him through tax payers pay money.

What's your reaction?
