Passport for a bribe of Rs. 100

• Passport
• Police Verification for Passport
• Paid INR 100

I was here for my Passport inquiry after the same was done at Bhavnagar city as i had resided here in ahmedabad for 3 years in part two years which was a condition in the criteria for passport verification.

My whole data was clear as well as all documents attached were perfect.

On completion of the process the verifying authority sitting there informed me tht ur passport will be processed but asked me to pay for chai nasta in the sense tht he was informing to pay some amount.
And he also asked what did i have to pay in bhavnagar for clearance for the same.
Actually there was no payment of such type made by me in bhavnagar but what i think is, it is prevalent throught the department.
Bribes may be ranging from rs. 100 with dependancy of the case of the applicant.

I would like to bring to the notice of department and take punitive action against those caught taking such bribe.
A sting operation would definately work if its carried out by some journalist.
