        Hi all,

        Place- Uttar Pradesh

        My father has a plotting business, where he purchased land and sells the plots for a margin and develops private colonies.

        Recently infront one of the sites another person had his own private colony who illegally sold government land to buyers, after the buyers complained to Nagar Nigam, the JE and AE of the department visited the site and filed some cases.

        Now the JE saw my father’s colony and commerical building which he built legally with all papers complete. The only issue is that the area was earlier under gram panchayat and now recently came under Nagar Nigam. By rule, all constructions have to be registered with Nagar Nigam.

        The JE called my dad to his office and asked him to pay 20lakhs to get the current layout and maps passed otherwise they will take some action. Ideally the fees for this entire procedure will be around 1.5 lakhs but we are being asked for bribe.

        How to proceed? We obviously don’t have this much money lying around to pay as a bribe.

        When my dad went to his office, the guard asked my dad to leave his phone outside hence we don’t have any recording as well.

          If your documentation is legal and valid, take help of ACB

              All documents are complete except the maps approved by Nagar Nigam. To do that they are asking so much money

                  from my experience the bribe will go upto ministers with sharing it in hierarchy so if ACB gets arrested the other people will make sure to harass you and stop all your projects. your father will have seen this happened as he has experience of dealing with the departments

                        I still don’t understand when they have time to post here and there for help, but they never consider reaching ACB secretly. Now you have all the valid documents and proof; destroy them by involving ACB.

                            Do you know who works in ACB? The same police people. Those are usually* more corrupt and know can definitely take bribes. That too in UP. πŸ˜‚

                                  Unfortunately, anonymous complaints would t work with the ACB. They want your entire identity, Aadhar etc along with all the documents. They basically want the entire case prepared for them. Besides, if they leak this organised crime, you’re in trouble.

                                    ACB – also has rate set for each department and position. They sit on top of other corrupt govt branches in the pyramid.

                                                      No. It is the corrupt govt apparatus, including judiciary, legislature and executive.

                                                    Corruption is rampant everywhere and being done quite openly. These rates have also increased tremendously, it doesn’t even justify the work. The ruling party has become what they were brought in power to destroy.

                                                        The ruling party is 10X more corrupt and while than their predecessors.

                                                            No no no na , SP was horrible, rampant corruption, unchecked crime, non existent infrastructure

                                                            Bjp is much much better in this regard

                                                                During SP regime lawlessness was there but corruption hasn’t died in BJP. Earlier usual bribes for getting building maps passed was around 2 to 3L. Now they won’t talk to you till you pay 10L atleast. Local newspaper journalist used to charge 20k now they also charge 1L (bribe). Top leaders are well aware.

                                                                      If you don’t pay they’re gonna put your property in the demolition list because usually the older buildings are not constructed as per the local by laws where you have to leave set backs and stuff

                                                                      They’ll mark these areas as illegal and say that they’ll demolish them unless you pay the bribe

                                                                      Also pay it before they put the building in the official demolition list, if they put it on the list then there’s nothing that can be done, they won’t even take bribes

                                                                      Or if you have political connections then use them to get the bribe lowered

                                                                      Forget about getting justice or anything, that’s not gonna happen

                                                                                            People that are saying go legal have never dealt with the legal system. Oh and that route will end up costing more

                                                                                                Ask your add to add this amount in margin or end user sale.

Buy sometime from those guys and delay it without giving them any doubt. They just can’t force you to pay money.

You ll have take help from someone influencial, and bring down the amount to 5L. Don’t deal with JE or AE, directly deal with EE or CE. JEs get transferred quickly, don’t trust them with bribe greater than 1L.
