No bribe for passport

Reported on June 19, 2012 from Mumbai , Maharashtra  ι Report #32818

I had applied for a passport at the Kolkata office. Online tracking showed that my passport would be delivered on october the 10th. However, it wasn't. Then the online tracking system said my police verification wasn't received. On enquiring at the police station, I was told that my verification had been sent (didnt have to pay anything). I then went to the passport office and got an appointment with the regional officer. He checked up on my passport application. He found that although it had been updated in the system that my police verification had been done, the office had misplaced my documents regarding the same. He acknowledged the mistake and gave my application a go ahead. Got my passport in a week.
