Kolkata Police — Digilocker documents not accepted

Address:Kolkata Police

My name is Subhadeep residing in behala, kolkata, west bengal under the jurisdiction of Kolkata police. Today on 23 oct 2020 at 10:27 a.m. I was travelling to Exide via PTS when I stopped by a cop & asked him which way shall I proceed to reach Exide. Instead of helping me out he asked me to park my bike & show him my DL & RC. When asked he told me its a routine check so I did what I was asked to do. When I showed him my e-documents through digilocker he simply denied to accept them & kept enforcing me for original documents. When I told him about the new guidelines under motor vehicles act 1988 he said he will issue a case upon me for lane violation & even threathened me that he is capable of seizing my bike for no reason. Atlast he took 200 INR in cash from me saying its a spot fine but did not give me anything in writing about this fine. Then he told me I must leave then & next time I should carry proper documents in order to avoid penalties. I am seriously annoyed with the irrational behaviour of these corrupt cops of kolkata. They are nothing but a shame for the state's law enforcement. The ministry of road transport & highway has clearly mentioned the rules about digital documents but still kolkata police is enforcing on original docs just to empower corruption. Hats off to you guys...this is the least we can expect from you being a citizen under your jurisdiction.
