What legal action can be taken against demand of bribe?
I drove my new vehicle without a number plate and was also not wearing a helmet at that time. The traffic police demanded a ₹10,000 bribe. What should I do?
Dear Client, Your relative should first submit a detailed representation to the institution challenging the refusal of the NOC, seeking reasons and an opportunity to respond. If the institution does not reconsider, he may file an appeal before the appropriate authority. If administrative remedies fail, he can approach the High Court under Article 226 for relief against an arbitrary or unjustified decision. He should preserve all correspondence, admission records, and supporting documents to strengthen his case. For further assistance, please contact Prime Legal.
Dear client, you should not pay any bribe to them. You can also ask for the official challan report for the traffic violations and the report the bribery demand to senior police officer or the anti- corruption helpline with any proof available in this. I hope this answers your question and for further queries contact us.
Driving without a number plate and helmet is a traffic violation, but traffic police cannot legally demand a bribe. You should ask for an official challan instead of making any illegal payment. If a bribe was demanded, you can file a complaint before the Anti-Corruption Bureau, local senior police officers, or traffic department helpline. Keep any recording, message, or proof safely if available. For further legal assistance contact us on our helpline number.
