While creating this concern i have been asked for city/category/department..etc..etc. I request you to make one option on the drag down which is "ALL" ....every government sector is filled with bribe.
Coming to the actual issue....i have all the necessary documents to transfer the EB connection on my name. With all that i been to Manapakkam EB office and submitted my documents. Person who received the document asked for 2000 Rs for name transfer.
I raised the concern "why it is 200 rs? and what is the actual amount? he said that 2000 Rs is not just for me.."i have to pay A.E to sign the paper and where ever the paper is passed". He didn't revealed the actual bill amount...but some how i know that should be just 250 Rs.
And it was strictly said that my paper will not processed until i pay the amount.
Infact around the EB office there are many government sectors are there....and everybody wants to bribe more than others.....i have the same experience on property tax...and here i was asked to pay 10000Rs (Huge isn't? most of them are paying..no other go)....when i have all the papers properly.
I dont know the name of office but that just close to manapakkam EB. This fellow said, the money is not for him...the guy who take the property report (from Alandur Zonal Division), will expect more money it seems. So for him he is asking the bribe.
But when i met the person in Alandur he wasn't talked anything about bribe. It looks like people are started using other names for their benefits and escape from the blame.
The real fun is "We have to pay bribe for requesting government to charge property tax " on us. If this is the state then who will be interested to pay property tax..?
I don't want to pay bribe to them,...at the same time i need my rights to be solved without pain.
