POLICE VERIFICATION FOR NEW PASSPORT
- Passport
- Police Verification for Passport
- Paid INR 3,000
I HAVE APPLIED FOR NEW PASSPORTS FOR MY PARENTS 2 MONTHS BEFORE. MY PARENTS STAY AT FORBESGANJ ( DISTRICT: ARARIA, BIHAR ) SINCE LAST 45 YEARS AND I FOUND THE PROCESS OF APPLYING NEW PASSPORT VERY DIFFICULT AS ONE HAS TO SUBMIT THE DOC'S AT PATNA PASSPORT OFFICE. I SUBMITTED THE DOC'S THROUGH ONE AGENT WHO CHARGED A GOOD SUM OF MONEY.
WHEN THE ENQUIRY REACHED THE FORBESGANJ POLICE STATION FOR VERIFICATION, THE POLICE OFFICERS WHO CAME TO VERIFY CHARGED INR 1500 FOR EACH PASSPORT ( MEANS TOTAL INR 3000 )FROM MY PARENTS. THEY SAID IF THIS MONEY IS NOT PAID THAT THEY WILL NOT TAKE ANY ACTION AND THE PAPERS WILL NOT BE PROCESSED FURTHER WHICH WILL CAUSE PROBLEM IN ISSUANCE OF NEW PASSPORTS.
THIS IS VERY SHAMEFUL MATTER THAT IN A DEMOCRATIC COUNTRY LIKE INDIA, POLICE OFFICERS ARE TAKING BRIBE OPENLY AND NO ONE IS THERE TO STOP *******
