Paid bribe to Passport Staff
- Passport
- Police Verification for Passport
- Paid INR 1,500
Staff at Chembur Passport Application collection center, Mumbai was constantly harrassing for additional document requirements. Always find little little faults with ID documents and asking for more amd more supporting documents. I had applied for passport of my family spouse + 2 children, they even asked children to be present in person during application. Finally I had to give in and pay to save time and hassle. I could see the harassment was just to make some money. As soon as I agreed to pay, all went smoothly. I felt sick paying to get what is my fundamental right. The passport issuance process is fully subverted, the people at counter ask for bribes, the people who come to home for checking ask for bribe and the police who do the verification ask for bribe :-(
