Police Is Corrupt, Proved: Passport Application continues.. Final Part

Oh my God...I can't believe what just happened...Well I knew this happens but the manner in which this happened was disturbing and shocking....

Went to the Police Station with required documentation i.e Rationcard verification of both mentioned witnesses and their signatures on the given document by the officer incharge earlier to me. 3 Passport size photographs of your and my rationcard was also attached...

Initially after thinking Not to pay anything for so called ''chai-paani' or whatever you may call it..I Could NOT muster the courage of doing so...Yes i accept...I could not muster the courage to say NO to a police officer...

So i thought , will give Rs 200 first..he would refuse and then finally offer Rs 300 and theat would be it.


But but...It did not go as planned or as i thought atleast..

He i.e the police officer attended me in five minutes of reaching his office..
Next five minutes , all the formalities were completed..He was disturbed for some internal dept thing and had to go..So he asked me.. to do it fast as he had to go..
I bit hasitant ,i.e offering Money to a Duty officer....took out Rs 200 , which made him angry and he instead offered 500 back...lolzz...

His justification for money was he had to do paperwork and at everystage monedy would be paid...He was just going to do same to his officer for some internal work (he had recieved a call just then and was going to settle that only ).

I took out hundred more...300..he said what are you doing..POORE KAR JALDI...

MAIN TE VAPIS BHEJ DENE HAI..I will tell them papers were not complete and objection will be made to your application...

Shocked at this...I said ok.. here Rs 400....He again refused and started walking out of the office , he said keep it.. i will send the form incomplete...

HE WENT OUT...

AT THAT POINT, I WAS ANGRY...VERY ANGRY AND SAID SO BE IT ..THIS IS NOT DONE..WHY SHOULD I PAY...
I HAD ALMOST DECIDED TO WALK OUT...

But then i saw him on bike as he was about to leave , he again said to me something,.. I Went close to ask..he said i myself going to give someone..what can i do...

I in the SPIRIT OF DIWALI...SAID LET GO...GAVE HIM Rs 500....He took it..He took ' ON THE ROAD' UNDER PUBLICE VIEW...And i was thinking about what happened to 'UNDER THE TABLE' ...This is OVER THE TABLE...UPFRONT,DIRECT IN FULL PUBLIC GLARE...

He took the money and went away..I also rode my bike and came home..Disgusted with myself...that i could not gather enough courage to take on the officer....Why i Could not say NO TO BRIBE ........

But may be it was good thing...I learnt a few things..And ANGER IN ME IS MORE AGAINST CORRUPTION....And in future i would take a stronger stand against such corruption...

I have written a complaint with passport office..though not mention my details..Because If we see It Was Not Officer at Fault..But System at Fault which has made bribe asking legal and acceptable socially and professionally...

They don't hesitate in referring this to 'UPAR KI KAMAI'...

But hopefully, The Process for change has begun..i will make effort for a change against this..

So TOTAL COST FOR APPLYING FOR A PASSPORT STANDS LIKE THIS :

1000 + 400 + 500 = 1900 RUPEES

Finally i close this passport application post, with a detailed experience and documentation required...


I could not BUT IF YOU COULD MUSTER THE COURAGE AND SAY NO TO GIVING BRIBE WHEN YOU VISIT THE POLICE STATION.....

Police Verification :Pasport Application Continues ....

In continuation of the previous post , i am sharing now my experience with the police for the purpose of getting clearance for passport.

I applied for the passport on 10th oct'2011 and today is 21st Oct. So roughly about 10-12 days is what is the time expected for police verification it means.

So, i got a call from my local police station's Munshi, He told me to report to the police station and collect some documnets which i should fill and submit back.
And so i went.

my first time inside a POLICE STATION... Scary place it would seem , but was not so.



The room was not very big, infact it was only suited for 2-3 people together, and a fourth person would crowd the place.

The officer offered me a chairt and after making me wait for 5-10 minutes , he brought the papers.

I signed at the required places, He asked me questions to fill in the form like occupation, father business, caste etc. simple questions.

After this i was told to get signatures of the witness i had mentioned and with their ration card proofs alongwith my ration card proof.

So, i told him to provide him withbthe required documents tomorrow.

But just as i were to leave, he said to me " maelne kal kariye"...or something like that....
Could not understand, i asked him again...he said same words..I asked again...

He was EMBARRASED...started laughing...bachha hai tu ???... i understood what he was saying..But i acted novice...like a confused lad...

Soon someone from outside came to his rescue....He said..OH DIWALI AA RHI HAI...DIWALI MELA....

Relieved...He said now u understood...Ahh..with a reluctant smile i said yes..i will do that tomorrow...(Wat else i could have said)....

Now, He seem to be nice guy.. I would not like to report him..(my parents will b angry..).. Nor that its like a bribe...But sitting on a chair of power it seems so...
I support janlokpal...and wish i could wear the ''anna'' cap to the police station tomorrow, indicating i won't pay but the lady -->Kiran Bedi who proposed this method is herself been caught inflating her travel bills .....hehehe

Though a little chai-paani would not hurt...I CAN PAY...

But then, what abt the one that cannot pay...Making it a unwritten rule is wrong...making it a precedent is wrong....So, I will be going tomorrow.,..I shall try to settle at minimum possible...

Am thinking of it..as saving my petrol expenses as taking witnesses with me or calling them would have costed money and time ....

But such open and blatent asking for money is appauling and very dangerous...This being a norm is very scary and failure of the process and systems...

Also, This gives me a teaching that whenever I shall come in contact of Govt Official , i should expect greasing their palms or so called chai-paani FOR JUST DOING THEIR DUTY AND NOT SOME ADDITIONAL WORK...INFACT THATS OVERTIME PAYMENT WITHOUT OVERTIME....

(tomorrow will update : how much it cost ) ..

Indian Online Passport Form Filling: Photos, Screenshots and All relevant documentation summarized and detailed

Well, I Consider this as my 'Most' important post of the blog.
I have been trying to find about this on web and when i could not get the right and relevant information , I went to the passport office with my online filled application printout hoping that this was so easy...There i came to know that the info available at passport india website was incomplete and agents rule the space there.

So , finally i had to take help of an agent for document completion.But i had decided to do the documentation and rest of the passport applications of my famile memebers would be done by me, myself only.

I have taken pictures of my application .
which i shall be posting here alongwith every and i say "EVERY" COLUMN INFORMATION..UNLIKE THE UNHELPFUL MINISTRY OF FOREIGN AFFAIRS WEBSITE WHICH PROVIDES HALF COOKED INFORMATION..

Many informations like the need to have a file cover for the filled form , without whcih they i.e the passport officer will not accept the application .etc etc many such information will be shared today.(Just filed my application today)..
I shall not only helping you, but i will be using this info to fill my rest of family passport applications and save about 1000-1200 rupees in this :)

Ok. So now i shall be filling page wise.

After online filling of application you get a 6-Page PDF file.
I shall be telling pagewise filling of info and then finally the Format of filing of documents.This is also important step.Today, i saw two boys like me in passport office being sent away for various reasons which the WEBSITE DOES NOT MENTION....Shame ....

OK. here goes.:

It is easy to fill the PPF form..Same personal information is to be filled with names and address of two people from your locality to be named who will testify for you as you being the resident of the said place...On polive verification, they would be called to give their testimony that you live in said house..

The form is as below, you can fill in with your information..
it has to be filled in duplicate i.e there will be two forms which are to be filled identically n with same info.

Sign across your photo pasted on the PPF form.

Check photo :





and so it it over..You have filled the 5+1 pages of the passport application.

.....................................................................................

And now , one Affidavit:. I have copied the affidavit content , so you should make one alongwith the application.
Although, I have not seen any info on passport site as this being a necessary requirement but it is best you make it to avoid any inconvenience and trouble at passport office.

AFFIDAVIT:



.....................................................................................


Finally your file is complete.
Now things to remember and to be done before going to passport office , which the offcial indian passport website DOES NOT say or i did not see...

1) Make 2 photo copy sets of eacy document.

2) every photo copy should be attested by a notary.

3)The sequence is as :

Passport Application (pages 1-2-3-4) ---->matric cert-->b.tech certificate-->ration card-->gas connection,bank statement copy ,voter card----->affidavit---> PPF form (pages 5-6 of passport application)...

Two attested copies of each mentioned above be attached


4)Staple all neetly with two pins lest side so it opens like a booklet and not at the top.

5)File the application and documents in a Brown file and not a plastic folder.

Wriet your name and address outside the file,.

6) Take all the original documents at passport office.

8)Directly goto counter number-8 at the passport office.


Friends, I have tried to explain it as best as i could, still if you want to get any clarification, try contacting me, in comment section.

This is the best comprehensive detailing of passport application filing you will find on net as of now.. (I did not find any , so i am writing this)

Discrepancy in Punjab Mandi Board - Auction Recorder Result / Answer Key conducted by CDAC MOHALI on 28/08/2011

Ok.. So here I try and produce documentation of Discrepencies in the Auction Recorder Result (Punjab Mandi Board- Market Committee ) Conducted by CDAC MOHALI on 28/08/2011.

Results have been uploaded on CDAC Mohali website cdac mohali

Now Please Note : Discepancy in result is based on assumption that the answer key uploaded was the same key used for marking the answer sheets of candidates.
My Question Paper set was SET-B , So I can comment only on SET-B as Question Papers have not been uploaded by CDAC , Check your sets for these questions and verify if same exist


Auction Recorder Answer key has been uploaded on CDAC website answer key

Based on this on verifying the answers I found in SET-B :
Question No. 41 & Question No.- 61 are incorrect and thus make 2marks difference..

The result so declared is very close and this discripancy if occured in results will lead to Certain Candidates being wrongfully selected and others being wrongfully rejected.

This will be Unfair and should be stopped.
I on my part am doing the needful..But because My number are in 60+ range, I cannot be among selected candidates and hence Do not expect me to persue this further , since my +2 marks will not affect my standing ...

Here's the proof : 1ST QUESTION NO. 41





Link for the proof:

Question NO. 41

I have tried to increase the size , but still Please zoom picture to see the explanation

Now : QUESTION No.- 61 :

Its explanation is very simple..Given eqauation when multiplied by 2 on both sides give the Equation asked and hence its answer is 50, which is option number- 3 According to Question Paper.

Finally , Would like to say CDAC has not uploaded Question papers for Auction Recorder, may be bcoz those were allowed to be kept by candidates .

Auction Recorder Merit List has not be declared as yet, so if u believe u have a chance after removing discrepancies , Contact CDAC MOHALI immediately and stop them from declaring merit list to prevent any further legal and other troubles..

I Have also given RTI to CDAC for my Answer sheet and Authorities to be contacted in case of any discrepancies in the result declared.
The reply is expected by Next week i.e 15/10/2011, after which i shall be updating about that too.

Well i tried my best to document the discrepancy, am not a regular blogger so quality may be low but as best as i could put forward to you all

gudluck !!

Shopping @yebhi NOT so Yipieee...

Today I am sharing my experience about E-shopping @yebhi.com (formerly bigshoebazaar.com) .

Well, initially it was a online/e-shoe selling company with domain bigshoebazaar.com but recently they have expanded and now sell clothes, jewellery, watches, sunglases, perfumes and recently mobiles too.
Seeing the prices , There are serious doubts about the genuinety of the products sold of big brand labels but also the quality.

Well my experience has been mixed...and definitely not great..
I mainly buy shoes from it as it was its USP and main product and the process of returning defective products is long and takes time to return money, though they do return.
But here's something about their QUALITY I WANT TO SHARE.
The images are the shoes Purchased from @YEBHI.COM , sold under the brand name : "BLUEKITES"









These were worn only 2-3 times and they started tpo rip apart.
I tried to approach the customer care and reasoned with them..But they said since u wore them , so guarantee ends and later no response after repeated mails.

My Advice: Be very Careful buying Online , Never try to increase the risk , and so try and purchase below 1000 rupees usual cases and under very tempting cases never try and buy above Rs 2000-3000...

On @yebhi.com : Though their offers are really tempting many times but Their QUALITY SUCKS , REALLY DO...Recently they sent me product made in 2009 i.e More than 2 yrs old and i had to return the product , money of which i was paid in about 1 month.
They have a team dedicated towards taking on negative comments/complaints posted online on sites like mouthshut and others, So they really take their business seriously and consider all aspects of online/e-shopping ...But only if they concentrate more on the products....

Dell Hinges: Why You Should Never Buy a DELL ...

Well, it was my first laptop and dell was the buzz word..They said world class after sales..They come to your home for repair, only online buy etc etc.

But fact is : In India , You don't buy Rs40000 product online.
So like many, it was purchased through a reseller.

But today, i want to share WHY YOU SHOULD NEVER BUY A DELL PRODUCT.

The Laptop INSPIRON 1525 , started disintegrating immediately after the expiry of the 1 yr warranty that came with it.

1)First came the charger shock,..Burnt...Not available in market.. From Dell for abt Rs1500-1800 depoending on rate at the time.
Difficult to get a compatible...Strangely enough we were many with same dell during my Post graduation , and they all had their chargers burnt immediately at the end of warranty period....surpised..?? Or they quality was made to last 1 yr only

2)Then came the turn of battery..The battery lost all its holding power and i could not work without the charger and each time a power cut, the laptop just switched off....And that lead to my Hard drive got burnt...and i lost my 2 years just in a flash :( ( I HATE DELL )

3)Finally the hinges...Look at the pictures..The screen just started coming off,..
I tried every posssible desi JUGAD to hold it together but nothing seems to work..
I even applied M-SEAL ..lolzz...

And rest pictures say for themselves.







(The wireless mouse is bcoz the Tap button on the touchpad is also broken..The key spring is dead)

So MY ADVICE TO YOU FRIENDS : NEVER BUY A DELL....

Btw: I heard about New Dell TABLET CUM LAPTOP ...It has the keypad attached with a central 'HINGE' prices at abt @ 1 Lakh.... Anybody buying (should get a health policy frist , when the hinge break apart)

Go Green : Sell your Old mobiles for some CREDIT.

So, when i see a recycle bin in a nokia store, am tempted to use but then are they offering me anything for my contribution towards a Greener Earth ? Noo...So , i take back my olde cell phone back with me to be used or not but not giving it free.


But Recently an Online Shopping Site (LETSBUY.COM) has come out with a campaign whereby they pay us some credit / e-vouchers in return for recycling the elecctronic waste A.K.A mobile and Laptops.
While going through the campaign i saw not very great returns for Laptops but surely something good for an OLD CELLPHONE.

Here's the link:.LETSBUY GO GREEN

PS: i have not yet tried the service, So i can't write a review about it.
But if u have an old/broken cell phone and want to buy some electronics give it a try..They do have a rider on the minimum amount to be bought for the Credit coupon to be used...Hmmmm....

and Best Option for buying online is COD !!.. Even if they don't deliver , they will be @loss not you

Violation Of Motor Vehicle Act and Penalties , Challans

Of late, its been seen that Motorist , have been fined heavily for Violating traffic laws under the Motor Vehicle Act.But most of times this fine is much higher that what is the actual fine under the Act.

I myself have been a victim, i was fined for not wearing a helmet for Rs 300/ while The MV ACT-1988 says , It should have been Rs100/ only.

After this i have been trying to raise awareness among the people and in this endeavour , i write this post. please share and know the Penalty slab.


This is also an initiate against bribing Because many a times we bribe to avoid bigger penalties while the truth is that the MV ACT , penalties are much lower and this is one of the way of making you pay bribe by scaring you with the fine amount.


I have listed only a few major violations which are common among motorists.

For a complete list refer to following links

http://www.htp.gov.in/MV-Act.html
For a PDF file, with violating sections:click here for pdf on panelaties and sections of violation of MV Act

How to reach Amritsar from New Delhi by Bus

The best way to reach Amritsar from New Delhi is Via Jalandhar.This is the route i followed and i shall be detailing it here.
There is lot of bus service, as i understand from new delhi to jalandhar.


There is a A.C bus service from ISBT terminal 9-10 booth to jalandhar.


Bus starts at 9.10 am. morning


cost of ticket : 420 rupees.



Reaches at abt 6.30-7 pm.


NO PROS ONLY CONS.


I suggest you to NOT TAKE THIS BUS SERVICE.. As i saw the driver was deliberatley delaying the bus , driving slowly. may be he gets extra money for overtime or may be to let private buses take the customers before reaching there ahead of the Punbus.


stil if you dont have an option , take it till Ambala cant... i believe they will give you ticket for Ambala Cant. too,


From ambala Cant. take some other bus/ train.


Bus Stand and Train Station at Ambala Cant. are oposite each other.


Already mentioned abt a bus service to Chandigarh from delhi of Haryana Roadways on this blog only. starts at 9.50 am., saame point.Though it was also somewat slow.

So i believe these are deliberate delays.
At jalandhar , you should drop down at PAP CHOWK.
and crossing the road, you wiul find bus service to amritsar.
From jalandhar (PAP CHWK)-Amritsar journey time is 1.30 hrs.
cost from jalandhar-amritsar Rs 60 (new revised rates as on 28 december 2010)
If you decide to take the bus journey from jalandhar bus station instead, add about 45min to an hour more,since because of construction there are jams and diversions.

So those using Jalandhar as connecting point for reaching Amritsar should preferrably drop down at PAP CHOWK and get a bus from there and not from jalandhar bus stand.

How to reach New Delhi from Ahmedabad

Well, here i tell you about reaching from ahmedabad to new delhi..


I dont think there's is a direct bus service between Ahmedabada and New Delhi because of the distance of more than 900 km.. but may be availabel from udaipur/jaipur.


You can get bus service to Udaipur and Jaipur from Ahemdabad.


There are many trains from Ahmedabada to New Delhi, but most preferrable is a RAJDHANI EXPRESS. SWARNA JAYANTI RAJDHANI EXPRESS.


Starting Time: 5.25 pm


Reaches New delhi- 7.30 am.


there is also Ashram Express..Gujarat sampark kranti.



Note that Ahmedabad-New Delhi Route is Less crowded so you can get tickets much easily.


You may find an agent at the Ahemdabad station who may help with reservations ...charges about Rs 500 +ticket cost.. Cannot give more details here.But if y6ou need a tiocket just try you luck and you may get it.


Cost of 3.A.C- 1500--(tatkal)


Train info: Food is of poor quality, you want all you money back..But cleanliness given to the agnecy is good. The outsourced company is doing good job of cleaning.


Temperatures may be uncomfortable inside i,.e higher than expected..So you may require to request the train staff and even the T.T for lowering its temperatures and make it more suitable.


The sheets take years to be distributed..


Only Pro: You may just reach ON-TIME :) (Though i did not, but compared to other on 27/12/2010..it was very punctual just 1hr late)

How to reach Ahmedabad from Pune by Bus

hi..so my was a very warward journey Pune--Ahmedabad--New Dehi--Amritsar.


i'll divide it into 3 parts and then a combined on.

here i specifically detail about reaching Ahmedabad from Pune.
Bus service is daily in the evening from pune.
I had taken Neeta 2x1 sleeper
There are ther bus services for ahmedabad too, but i shall detail abt Neeta as i travelled in it.:


Details:Bus starts at 6.15 pm from Chinchwad.
Reaches Ahmedabad at about 8.30-9.am

If it ennters before 9 am..it will go inside the city limits , otherwise it will drop you on the outskirts as buses are not allowed entry after 9 am.
Now if it neters Ahemdabad city, it passes through Train station and you can be dropped there.

Cost of the journey: 1300 rupees.
Stopages : abt 3 for going to the loo and refreshments.

Pros of the bus :
• can be availed easily compared to trains, as bus may be not preferred mode of journey.
• same day booking possible with a seat assurance.
• confortable for old/aged people, since a sleeper.

Cons of the bus journey:
• very very poor stopages.
• unhygeinic bathrooms. in such journey one requires very good stopages, and not cheap ones. also, if we see cost of journey is quite high, so consumer would spend if given nice service.
• do not opt for seat 21-a,b ..actually being a 2x1 sleeepr there are some seates which are shared by two(2) people.
incase of women, i doubt anyone would take this journey if the co passenger is a male.or may be they wont book it..so do check before booking the seat of what you are getting.
• its cold with a.c on. take your blankets., although they do provide it, quite late but.
• very dirty, bed sheets.
• journey is very boring, all you are expected to do in these 14-15 hrs is to sleep sleep n sleep. no entertainment facility in the bus.
• A Semi Sleeper should be more advantage for youngsters who dont mind sitting long hours, it won't hurt that much.

ok so now contact details:
www.neetabus.in- for online booking..but i suggest avoid online booking, i think its on higher side, you may get cheaper deal from agent and neeta office.

other agent info:prasanna travel pune: 9422546047
wakad office no. of prassana travel: 09881161110
anymore details..may ask

In vsita its windows mail and windows 7 has windows live mail..

Now how to transfer data from Outlook Express in XP to Windows Live Mail in
Windows 7.

Click Appearance and Themes, and then click Folder Options. Click the View tab, and under Hidden files and folders, click Show hidden files and folders.

2.Locate the folder named Outlook Express. In Windows XP, this folder is located here by default: C:\Documents and Settings\your user name\Local Settings\Application Data\Identities\{your Windows user identity number}\Microsoft\Outlook Express.

3.Copy the Outlook Express folder and all its contents to the Documents folder on the computer running Windows Vista. (You can store this copy of the Outlook Express folder in a location other than the Documents folder, as long as you remember where to find it.) For information about how to copy a folder, see Copy files to another computer.

On the computer running Windows Vista, do the following:
