- Paid INR 4,000
After 5 trips to a BBMP Office, after hours of waiting for a person who otherwise was paid to be in his chair, amidst exhausting permissions for the month in the office, and getting sent back with reasonless reasons like asking why I was using a downloaded form, the gentleman government servant-the point of contact, asked me to pay 4000INR if I wanted my file to move. This is for a Khatha tranfer-another opportunity provided to Government Officials to loot in the pretext of formalities. I was asked to pay this money in cash and was laughed at when I asked if I would receive a receipt. I refused to yield. The name of the elderly gentleman is Gopal and he sits in the BBMP office in Ramaswamy Pallya (Opp. Raja Rajeshwari Temple). He refused to even take my application and has asked me to go to Cox town and see if I can get it through... I left as he slyly smiled behind me... and Cox town, here I come for further abuse... Government work is God's work...
