[Resolved]  Traffic Police — Corruption in traffic police

Address:

Thane, Maharashtra

Respected Sir,

My Self Manjudas Madhavan residing in kalyan was driving my bike from Shriram talkies road to Katemanivali(Kalyan east). Inbetween there was a traffic checking which was happening at the octroi naka aside Vithalwadi Station. I was asked to wait to show my documents. I showed all my documents.I had a photo copy of my driving license as last week i lost my wallet in train for which i did an FIR . I showed the copy of the FIR also to the officer. The officer was convinced with all the document shown by me and he asked me to pay a fine of Rs 100.00 as i was not wearing a helmet. I agree to pay the fine. I was asked to go to the police jeep for taking a receipt of Rs 100.00 and to pay the fine. When i approached the senior officer who was sitting in the jeep, to take the receipt he asked me to pay Rs 200.00 . I asked him that i was said by the traffic Police to pay only Rs 100.00 for the fine of not wearing a helmet.The officer sitting in the jeep got irrate and started saying me that now you have to pay a fine of Rs 700.00 as you did not had the original license.When i again informed him about the license issue he took Rs 100.00 from me and did not issued me a receipt for the same.When i again asked for the receipt he threatened me with dire consequence and i was forced to leave the place with no receipt.

Sir i want strict action to be taken on these officers who play with the system without any fear .Also by when corruption would be completely washed out from our system .

Regards,

Manjudas Madhavan
