Paying bribe above the registration and stamp duty charges

Reported on October 9, 2012 from Bangalore , Karnataka  ι Report #34129

After accumulating funds for the past ten years my husband and I have now collected enough to buya small piece of land for building our house. What we now get to hear from the developer that we have to pay a standard figure of Rs 26000/- as bribe without which registration of the property will become a difficult and tedious procedure. This is our hard earned money and we work 6 days a week morning till evening to make this money. I do not wish to pay this to already cash rich officials and politicians whose only job is to abuse the system and the very people they promise to serve. We also got to know that the area MLA has a standard 'cut' in the 'mandatory' bribe for each registration. Please advise on how can avoid paying a bribe and get the propoerty registered in my name
