Paid bribe Rs.1400 to get a copy of my own sale agreement (which should cost no more than Rs.50)
- Stamps and Registration
- Stamp Duty
- Paid INR 1,400
I needed a copy of sale agreement for my property near Whitefield. I need this copy to get the electricity bill transferred to my name (from previous owner from whom I had bought property). The office boy (Nagaraja or something like that) accosted me at the entrance and insisted that I pay this much if I wanted it today else he said they will delay it for many days. Even though I am a local Kannadiga, I wasnt spared. I felt ashamed as I paid the bribe and also was asked to sign for extra copies to get stamp papers (for these agents to operate illegally) because after stamp paper scam, they don't issue many of these to everyone. Ashamed to be a Kannadiga, God help India and God help Karnataka - the most corrupt state.
