Bribe for the booking of Goods
- Railways
- Transport of Goods
- Paid INR 6,500
I booked around 80 bundles of rice packaging bags at Nizamuddin railway staion to Raipur in july month for which I have to pay 80 rs per bundle to the private broker for the booking and loading of bags. This amount was apart from the railway receipt charges. There are several brokers who are working at each railway station in India, they have their complete set up like office in the station premises, private labor for loading and unloading, they have their own booking clerk, loading supervisor. They are running a parallel system to the Indian Railways. The money they took from us is distributed to the Indian railway staff, for some this is on monthly basis who are working at booking counter and on per bundle basis who are taking care of loading. This amount is not only paid to Indian railway staff but also to the GRP.
The amount differ from station to station like in Delhi we pay Rs. 80/ bundle this 100 in Howrah, 75 in Raipur, 100 in Chennai, 90 in Indore.
This is fool proof system you can't think booking and loading of your goods without paying this money to the brokers.
