Hai everyone.Saw this site first time & thought of putting my experience forward. It was the first time that i was returning from Dubai to India my mother country & when the plane flew over Mumbai i just loved it to be back where i was born, bred & educated.But i didnt even dream of what i will be going through a few min afterwards.I cleared immigration & when i reached Customs the first question asked by them: u hav dutible items pay Rs 10000 & clear or pay Rs1000 & be escorted till outdoors. I preffered the 1st option since i didnt have any dutiable items & demanded a receipt. their ans was simple : Pay 1200Rs or u face trouble. It wasnt a request. It was an arrogant demand. The argument continued & at last i had to pay since i had a connecting flight to Manga lore. But it was the first time i felt ASHAMED AS AN INDIAN THAT MY BREATHER EN were looting me of my Hard earned money & our country. NO COUNTRY OR SYSTEM IS PERFECT . WE HAVE TO MAKE IT PERFECT. After that i pledged to Myself. even if i have to go to Jail, i will not pay bribe to these useless, hopeless, waste creatures calling themselves as *******
