Bribe for Passport Application
- Passport
- New Passport Application
- Paid INR 1,000
My Parents went for Police Verification today in Chas Police Station located in Chas, Bokaro, 827013, Jharkhand. There Inspector named Mr. Dubey spoke very politely to my Parents and did all Formailities neede. After Paper Work was over, he said clearly "Mera Kaam to ho gaya ab aap apna kaam kijiye" (I did my work now you do your own). It was a clear statement for demanding Bribe in return of his Job. My Parents from simple Middle class family wanted to avoid any argument or delay to Passport work asked directly "How much ??" (Kitna ??).
He shamelessly mentioned " Waise to sab 2000 per passport dete hain, per aap 1000 per passport de dijiye." (Although Everyone pays 2000 per Passport but you pay 1000 per Passport".
My Parents didnt have enough money then so they ended up paying 1000 in total for 2 Passport.
After such a strong Nation wide Protest against Corruption, Police are still shameless in such act, Today I am again ashamed of being part of this System where I dont want but I am forced to pay BRIBE. Shameless Indian Bureaucrat and Politicians, ashamed of being Indian by such act.
