Reported on March 4, 2015 from Faridabad , Haryana  ι Report #53243

We got our passport issued from Lucknow. After retirement we settled at Faridabad.The passport has to be amended , and present address has to be revised.
So we applied for amending address at New Delhi passport office, they did their job very efficiently, honestly and for address verification they send the details to Faridabad police. Instead of coming to our residence for verification, they called us to police station sector 8. Where they demanded Rs.500/-, I told them I already have passport and only address is to be amended and also that I am an cancer patient, &I am not in a posion to pay. Than Mr. Rajpal (who was not wearing any uniform) said I am not taking my share but you have to give minimum Rs.300/- being Munshi's share. I have to pay Rs.300/-.&I paid 3 notes of 100/- . I had no camera to record. And there is no cameras installed in police station. Faridabad police has been extorting minimum 2 to 3 Lac per month from public this way, without verifying, without visiting houses And without using a drop of petrol. The calls made to my mobile and land line can be checked.
