Passport verification delayed for refusing bribe

Reported on June 27, 2011 from Guwahati , Assam  ι Report #31757

I had applied for a passport in Guwahati in Jan of 2003 while i was studying in IIT guwahati and was soon called for police verification. I was however shocked when the office responsible for doing verification openly asked for a bribe to expedite the report. Being from a poor family, i wasn't able to afford the bribe so i silently refused. As a result my passport got delayed for 7 months.

What is your reaction after reading this report?
