Heavy bribe to Register a land or property
- Stamps and Registration
- Land Registration
- Paid INR 15,000
Hi All,
The incident happened in Basavangudi, Registration office. Even though bribe is considered as wrong, we are forced to pay it, since by not doing it things will take a snail pace to process. Now no more the authorities take bribe directly, they have employed brokers through which they take hefty amount of bribe. I wanted to register a property, and I had to struggle so much, if we approach directly not much information is given, and with disinterest. So in a hurry as my brother had to go out of station on a assignment, we were forced to catch a broker and get the registration completed in a day. The respect we get by going through broker is different, we were asked to sit and be in registration office just for an hour and all our work got over in flat 2 hours. The bribe was taken by broker then how they distributed to the officials is a hidden story though. Feels sad to pay bribe being an educated chap but I was helpless as the situation demanded me to do.
Thanks
