Kmc Birth Certificate Office: Cmho Subrata Roy Chowdhury And Ranita Sengupta Are Asking For Bribes — Kmc Birth Certificate Office: Cmho Subrata Roy Chowdhury And Ranita Sengupta Are Asking For Bribes

Address: Kolkata, West Bengal

The KMC (Kolkata Municipal Corporation) birth certificate office located at 5 SN Banerjee Road, Esplanade, Kolkata is poorly managed. The CMHO Subrata Roy Chowdhury and his deputy Ranita Sengupta directly asked me for 25k in bribes to correct a birth certificate. They are public figures and public servants. Their names are public information that is available from their own website. They said otherwise they'll not do the correction. They made the mistake, and now I have pay to get it corrected?

He was born at home. The midwife died and they demanded a letter from her so we paid them off. Then they made mistakes and started demanding more money.

There is even a Quora thread — Google search for: KMC birth certificate office Quora — that talks about cases being mishandled with bribe demands. There are also links to news articles and past cases to show this corruption is entrenched and systemic. This has been going for a long time.

The KMC birth certificate office deliberately messes up cases to extract bribes. They make mistakes, and when applicants ask for help correcting them, senior staff demand bribes to fix their mistakes.

CMHO Subrata Roy Chowdhury has a Diploma in Public Health—a one-year course from the University of Calcutta (see his LinkedIn Profile). This man is not a doctor even though he pastes Dr. in front of his name. This is the reason public health in Kolkata is an absolute disaster, and people have to pay large bribes to him and his deputy.
