Open Corruption on the Roadside As the Manohar Parrikar government saying zero tolerance to corruption, would like to bring at the kind notice of our Chief minister that there is open corruption going on the roadside in the name of issuing challans by the Traffic Police to the two wheeler riders for not wearing the helmet.
Their presence is common on the Cuncolim-Chinchinim Highway and at times they are present in large numbers of about ten. On the 20th of June 2012 self was fined for the same offense. I would really appreciate them if they are carrying out their duty sincerely in the safety interest of the two wheeler riders but very sorry to say that though it is difficult to prove, self have personally witnessed them making a setting with the violators by accepting a fifty rupee note i.e. half of the fine amount without issuing a challan. Hope the concerned authorities will look into the matter and save the fast losing image of Goa Police. Issuing challans to the violators of helmet regulation is the easiest job they can do and at least they should do that sincerely. Joel Morais P.O.Cuncolim, Bencleamvaddo, Salcette,Goa.
