- Police Verification for Passport
- Paid INR 700
I was asked for bribe at DUMDUM PS for my wife's passport verification. In spite of submitting all relevant documents we were threatened to pay the bribe as otherwise the verification would not be passed. We had paid Rs 500 there.
Then again the local police visited her home at her native place for verification. They again asked for Rs 200 bribe as she was not present there on that day. There was no earlier communication about the visit so how could one know about the sudden visit? This is not over yet as inspite of showing all the documents they have asked to meet at their office.
If the verification process involved is so costly then why not make the payment while applying for the passport itself? We are already submitting the relevant documents while applying. Atleast we then don't need to take the pain of dealing with these bribe-happy police officials.
