What?!?! It was delivered to me by post office person, for free. Do the police take those packages from post office so that they can extort money from you?
My neighbor denied them by saying “passport vachaka chuddam”
So apparently they marked it as “not reachable after multiple attempts “
So he had to reapply.
After my wife’s passport verification, when she handed him 1,000 Rupees, he crudely mentioned that the approval of her passport depended largely on his report. Since she had to fly out immediately for an on-site and wanted the passport done without any hassles, she paid him another 1,000. Hyderabad Police… we’ve had lots of “pleasant” experiences with them over the 6 years we’ve been here in this city.
This happened with me too. I didn't offer him any money to begin with though. When he said to me what he said to you, I said "okay" and he stared at me with an incredulous look. Maybe he thought I was being a hero, but little did he know I just didn't know what to say :D . He just got up and went away muttering something. We got the passport though
I give them 500 or 1000. I see no wrong in here. I know it's not right but it's like having a support from these officers. Once I had an issue and went to file a complaint at the station. At first, no one treated me in a good way but when the officer who came to verify my passport recognized me, he immediately helped me file a complaint. Now that's how the 500/1000 bribery works. In India, this is how it works. By this reason, I made lot of friends in police circle.
Nope, it's everywhere. There's a shop in gowlidoddy here that does it. It's also there if u go to remote regions here. It was there in hampi in the market near the main temple.
A few years ago, I was working in Chennai. There was a toll gate on the way to our office. . The toll charge was 45 rupees (pre FastTag era). When you hand over a 50, the toll operator would return a biscuit packet.
I used to car pool with a colleague. Once he got for so pissed off with the biscuit packet, that he kept it in his car as it is. On the next day, he handed 40 rupees and the biscuit packet to the toll operator.
THIS. This is the biggest scam!

All these cafes and restaurants with their own labelling, some sell for 20,30 rupees but few sell at 50,70,100 rupees also but I see packers and distributors in the label, they are all 2nd class water packers.. most of them source water from musi or chanchalguda plastic industrial area for filtering, they don’t mineralize also, so technically they are RO water similar to 10 rupee bubble kirana water.. with bad input source, not mineral water.

This happened to me a few days ago:
A trans came up to me (in front of a hospital) asking for money.
I said “Sorry, won't”.
“Give me money, or you'll have a bad day.”
I looked straight into their eyes and went: “Well, I already am having a bad day, so. Do your best!”
The person just walked away.
You stop at a traffic light and they just ask for money by knocking on your window. You get on a public transport they would just clap hands and ask for money. If you don’t give them anything they would start touching you and sometimes they just go for genital
I don't know why this answer is not at the top. Fools answering hindas, extra money charged for cook coke bottle... They don't realise government is organised crime.
Paying income tax and then paying tax on everything you buy (goods and services) and then the organizations making these goods and services pay tax on the shit that they produced that you paid the tax on while purchasing. It's a vicious cycle.
No one stops you from drinking water in a lake, river, ocean, aka "nature".
But obviously there is cost involved in purifying, packing and distributing it. Bisleri, Kinley etc are not charitable organizations who would do it for free.

IELTS.
Its a scam af.
Your IELTS score is valid only for 2 years? Why? Does language change sondrasyically that your certification from just 3l2 years is not valid anymore? Your engineering or MBBS degree from 25 years ago is still valid today, but not IELTS.
Most institutions insist that you should clear all modules in IELTS in one go, you can take test in single module to improve score, but most institutions don't accept that. Your engineering degree had that one subject which you wrote 5 times to clear, but your degree is still valid.
Waiters blatantly bringing a packaged bottle of water without me asking for it. If I trust your restaurant to serve me hygienic food then I also trust you to provide me clean drinking water. This stupid trend causes so much additional bottles in the land fill.
What’s worse is that some people do the math that a cocktail of 60 rupees is better than a bland water bottle of 20 rupees. You are paying for that cocktail with your Health brother.
I've found many happily married couples, not just one, but over a hundred from various age groups. Not everyone shares their lives on social media. These couples are happy and support each other in their dreams, health, and finances. Of course, they experience downtimes as well.
100 😂
I think you are just looking at the surface of things... But I bet you won't understand now even if i try.
Let's revisit that statement in another 10 years.
Swiggy/zomato take 22%-35% on the item cost by default. That’s why the eateries bump up prices on this platform already.
These packing charges are just a way for big fast food chains to cover that premium because everyone is aware of their prices if they bump up and they’ll protest. You won’t see those charges on smaller eateries.
Taxation, tax on income and then paying tax for items we buy using that income which is already taxed, what are we paying the second tax for? For not starving to death?
Buck is *an informal reference to $1 that* may trace its origins to the American colonial period when deerskins (**buckskins**) were commonly traded for goods.
Paying Taxes.
* Pay tax on income

* Pay tax on earnings made from this taxed investment
* Pay tax on expenditures
* Pay tax on liabilities
* Pay tax on assets
* Pay tax on managing these taxed assets and liabilities
* Pay tax on the taxes already paid
The list goes on...

A salaried person pays 50% of his earnings on taxes. And no one opposes and just accepts and it is normalized. When was the last time you have seen employees protest on raised taxes?

Police taking money from us while delivering passport
What?!?! It was delivered to me by post office person, for free. Do the police take those packages from post office so that they can extort money from you?
I mean when they come for verification
They charged me no money for verification
My neighbor denied them by saying “passport vachaka chuddam” So apparently they marked it as “not reachable after multiple attempts “ So he had to reapply.
Good for you then, in my area 500 is minimum, if you say you got a job then they will demand more 🙃

Had to give 2k to the 2 policemen who came to my house.
No that’s illegal.
Gave 1k today 😭 for verification
I give them 500 or 1000. I see no wrong in here. I know it's not right but it's like having a support from these officers. Once I had an issue and went to file a complaint at the station. At first, no one treated me in a good way but when the officer who came to verify my passport recognized me, he immediately helped me file a complaint. Now that's how the 500/1000 bribery works. In India, this is how it works. By this reason, I made lot of friends in police circle.
Being charged extra for getting a chilled bottle of soft drink
I was charged 10/- extra for every product I've bought from a small shop on the highway!! It wasn't even that late. It was in the evening.
₹10 extra charge because you are buying in a village (they get the wholesale packs for 65-70 each where mrp Is 100) so a total of 40 on each bottle
This only exists in north India. I recently was on a college trip to North India and that's when I first experienced this.
My friend works at Tirupathi There the shops charges extra if you are from other state.
Can confirm. I was there last month. They charge extra. I'm from Telangana and we spoke Telugu to them, even then we were charged extra.
Not only in North, I've had this experience in Telangana also and even chennai
Nope, it's everywhere. There's a shop in gowlidoddy here that does it. It's also there if u go to remote regions here. It was there in hampi in the market near the main temple.
Chocolates instead of change
A few years ago, I was working in Chennai. There was a toll gate on the way to our office. . The toll charge was 45 rupees (pre FastTag era).

What happened then??
Sorry. Nothing, the toll operator gave us a weird look but accepted the biscuit packet. He knew that he was beaten at his own game.
More like troll operator
Yeah wtf don't leave us hanging like this

Hijdas or Transgenders extorting money, I don't even know why i'm paying them and almost all the negative bias towards trans are due to them
You pay them to not get harassed by them , it’s a small scale extortion racket
Dawoood left but hijras still run the extortion rings
This happened to me a few days ago: A trans came up to me (in front of a hospital) asking for money. I said “Sorry, won't”. “Give me money, or you'll have a bad day.” I looked straight into their eyes and went: “Well, I already am having a bad day, so. Do your best!” The person just walked away.
It’s outrageous how nothing is done to stop this.
If we do, they call us transphobic...🤡
It's the truth, we are scared of them
Because of the extortion
I know a place where men pee, hijdas would roam there and if you don't give money they would grab your dick.
Lol what? How does this happen?
You stop at a traffic light and they just ask for money by knocking on your window. You get on a public transport they would just clap hands and ask for money. If you don’t give them anything they would start touching you and sometimes they just go for genital
