Hello,

I am jatin goyal.i am a ca student. Recently i visited service tax department of faridabad to apply for service tax no. I met Mr. bajaj in Range-III. But instead of receiving my documents he demanded Rs.1000 bribe. There were some other people also like me who have already paid Rs.1000. I just want to ask that we are in this reputed profession just to pay bribe to these corrupt officials.Please suggest.............

Govt will make a correct action against in this type of evils. If sometime we may feel, this type of amounts are deserved to them, by the way, they are asking.

Of course Jatin, you may inform this to the CBI. They will definitely take strict action against such corrupt govt. officials. If possible record his voice demanding bribes on your mobile phones n give it to the media people or news channels. You may simply mail it to them. I really appreciate that you are daring to speak up. Very few people in this country today dare to challenge such corrupt practices. In fact people are like..... "chalta hai yaar". This attitude s simply killing our India. Come on Jatin. Go ahead n fight. Lets save our country from corruption. It's....we the youth..who are the future. Let's be the change. Let there be revolution. Best Regards Ashish Pathak

I agree with the observations laid out by Ashish sir, this kind of corruption is prevalent all over the country. Jatin sir, I appreciate your efforts to raise your voice in a forum like CCI and also inform the appropriate authorities, so that this corruption cancer is controlled.
