Renewal of Driving *******
My driving licence issued in Mumbai was due for renewal on 12/12/2011. In October I visited the RTO Indiranagar to enquire about the procedure for renewal as well as transfer of the licence to Bangalore. An agent operating on the premises demanded Rs.3000/- to get the job done. However I decided to do it on my own. The RTO Officer asked me to come back with all relevant documents 30 days before the expiry of the licence. The receptionist at the RTO office was very helpful and issued me the requisite forms. Accordingly I submitted all the documents required to the RTO office on 18/11/2011 and paid an amount of Rs.370/- (three hundred seventy only) for renewal of licence and for transfer of licence to Bangalore. I spent exactly 45 minutes in the RTO office to complete all the formalities. Since I did not receive the licence even after 45 days I visited the RTO once again. I was assured by the RTO office that the licence would be sent to me within a week and delay was because NOC from RTO Mumbai was received late. Promptly a week later I received the renewed licence. The whole process was so simpleand I felt elated that I had resisted paying a bribe to get my work done.
