[Resolved]  Traffic Police — Taking unauthorized charges

Address:

Thane, Maharashtra

I was taking my newly purchased bike for RTO passing. It had Temporary number given by the dealer and i was also carrying my Driving license along with purchase receipt.Dealer asked me to drop the vehicle for RTO passing at his shop. The traffic police stopped me and asked me about vehicle papers. I explained him that i am taking it for RTO passing with the dealer.But he is not ready to listen and threaten to charge me Rs.1100/- for not carrying papers. He took Rs.400/- from me illegally and has not given me any receipt.When i asked for the receipt he threatened to charge me 1100 or may be more than that if i want receipt. I paid him 400 as i was not in the position to give him 1100 or more than that.
I really want government to have control over these officials.This kind of harassment should be stopped.IF the person is giving genuine reason like RTO passing and showing the purchase receipt then they should consider that.These kind of bribery cases are increased in Dombivali area and it should be stopped immediately and action should be taken.

The traffic police belongs to Dombivali/Kalyan region.
