[Resolved]  BWSSB — Drain clearing not done unless bribe is given

Address: Bangalore, Karnataka

This is at M.M.Layout, Kavalbyrasandra, R.T.Nagar, Bangalore. We placed a request with the BWSSB that the drainage near our house was blocked. They called us up during weekdays when we were not at home, and they deliberately did not come to clear the drain because if they came, there would be nobody to give them their bribe. We gave them the exact address and even our streets are numbered, but they gave an excuse that we did not specify the address correctly. So then they came on Saturday with their drainage clearing truck, did the job and said "kalsi saar". Which in Kannada means "send us off sir". It's their way of saying "Give us our bribe and we will be on our way". They expect more than Rs.200 for a task that should be done for free. Could you please ensure that these people just come and do their jobs even if it's on a weekday when we're not at home? And also to ensure that they don't ask for a bribe. The corporator is one person who can ensure this.
