Paid Bribe for not having Platform ticktet

Reported on November 21, 2013 from Chennai , Tamil Nadu  ι Report #37528

I was in the railway station to receive my parents. Out of my overwhelming joy to see them after a year I had forgot to buy platform tickets.
The TT waited the entire time i was in the platform, but the moment my parents stepped down the train the TT asked for ticket to only me but not my parents. I said that i forgot and will get the tickets. However, he asked my father to pay 1000/- for not having the platform ticket. Then he started abusing that he would take me to the police station to which i agreed.

My father is a senior citizen and old to encounter the TT's brash remarks. So i requested him to take the 1000/- and give a receipt. Then the TT asked me to pay only 350, when i asked for a receipt he handed me over a 150/- receipt for extra luggage.

I asked him to take the entire amount but give a proper receipt. He refused and just ran away from the scene.
