Bribe in Indian Railway at Courier Department.

Reported on March 26, 2011 from Nagpur , Maharashtra  ι Report #25460

It happened when I traveled back to Nagpur from Pune. I brought my bike with me using IR courier service with the same train.
At the Nagpur station I waited there to receive the bike, the officer "A" near the train checked my courier receipt and allowed the carrier man to take the bike off the platform and toward the courier office. At the office another officer "B" checked the receipt and said that officer "A" has not signed the receipt, I told him that officer "A" has already checked the receipt and bike documents. but he didn't listen and asked me to pay 50 Rs for the confirmation sign. so I gave it to him and asked him for the 50Rs. receipt and he said "It won't be necessary" then i realized I unknowingly gave him a bribe.
