Bangalore Traffic Police — Asked to pay fine for following traffic rules

Address:Bengaluru

Today, between 3:40pm and 4:00pm, I was passing through Sanket Tank signal (Shivaji Statue side signal) towards Mekhri Circle. As most o[censored]s know, there is no free left but there is an extra 30 to 35 seconds green signal for left turn for every green signal from Sanket Tank. Seeing that green signal for left turn, I passed through that signal and took left turn and unexpectedly 2 traffic police people halted my car and started saying that I have jumped the signal. I told them that there was green when I took left turn but they did not listen. One of them already started putting my details into his machine for fine. Even though I had not jumped any signal, they wanted me to pay fine for signal jump. Finally, after so much convincing, they let me off. Horrible experience. Hope the higher ups take some appropriate action against such police.
