Amitoj, may be naveen picked a wrong example to quote. But in my experience, most of the bribe situation is not due to our mistake.

I'll give you a common example. You apply for a power connection and nothing happens. You visit the office repeatedly and find out that they won't move the file unless palms are greased. Corruption in government offfices is not an individual trait. It is a collective pool, everybody gets their cut, all the way up.

So, what are your options? Go to his boss... Well, he too won't be pleased that you are making trouble. They can invoke one of 100s of rules for blocking your application. What will you do?
