"The JE Nirmal Singh conducted a site survey and demanded Rs.5,000 for preparing the estimate from the complainant. After taking this bribe amount, he processed the estimate and further demanded Rs.5,000. After this, Nirmal and contractor Satnam again visited the complainant's house and demanded Rs.12,000 for shifting the wires. After negotiations, the complainant agreed to pay Rs.10,000," the VB said.
