Goa, Nov. 25 -- Social activist Sanjay Barde has alleged the existence of a structured bribery scheme at the Patradevi RTO check-post. In several videos he shared, truck drivers are seen handing over cash, reportedly in Rs.100 and Rs.500 notes, to pass through the border. Drivers claim that unless they pay these amounts to certain officials, their vehicles are not permitted to move ahead into Goa. They also say they have little choice in the matter and sometimes must cover the bribe from their own pockets just to ensure their goods and vehicles are allowed to enter the state.
