Random Document Checking a nuisance!
- Police
- Traffic Violations
- Paid INR 100
I was under the assumption that the random document checking done by the traffic police was banned by the govt.. However, near the Majestic Bus Stand in Bangalore theres this extremely crooked freak of a traffic inspector who still has the nerve to stop vehicles at his will and demand documents and bribe from them. I did not have my insurance on me and so I agreed to pay the fine legally. To my surprise the cop says he cannot produce a receipt and that I have to pay him the amount without getting a bill. This completely shocked me. 2 other cops also pounced on me and did not let go till I paid them a 100 rs. A relatively small amount maybe, but where is the govt of Karnataka (Esp the Police Dept.) heading to? The name of the cop was Vishwanath and the Inspectors badge was cleverly concealed by his jacket and he was not willing to tell me his name either. I wish justice can be done. I feel extremely ashamed to be an Indian.
