I paid bribe for obtaining domicile certificate

Reported on August 28, 2012 from Bangalore , Karnataka  ι Report #996

I had to pay a bribe of around 1200 rs, to obtain a domicile certificate. I approached the bangalore district tahsildar to obtain a domicile certificate, but there is no way allowed to even speak to the tahsildar. At every step there is a hurdle and I am being asked for money. If I take the clean routs, I would end up obtaining the domicile certificate after 2 months. The district tahsildar is completely sourrounded by layers of corruption. The inner cirle who accept bribe consists of employes working in Tahsildar office. All the touts and agents form the outer circle who manage to bribe the employees and get the work done in 7 to 14 working days. Although my documents are perfect, I did not have any option but to pay the bribe.
