I agreed to pay that money to him as I was not the only guy caught there. There were many bikers around. Then I asked them the receipt for the same. He told that they are currently not having receipt book. He told me that if you want you can take it tomorrow or leave your license with me.Why cant these guys have a receipt book if they are imposing a fine on someone.

That A**H**e took the money and the next day when I happen to past those guys for the receipt, he refused to recognize. He again told me that my number plate was not correct and it is in Digital font and you need to pay the fine for same. I was really pissed off. I paid them 30Rs and left. But I learnt a lesson. Whenever they show a hand to stop you and you are on a highway just pull your throttle and leave as fast as you can.

The wise thing to do is escape the situation with very minimal fine, u know the system is corrupt and yes u can try to change it ..and with a cost. talk to them nicely in a manner u can convince them, if they ask for 100/- check the situation and act accordingly,.. if they they are strict then u'll come to know immediately and surely they find something wrong in ur bike, some are casual .. just pay less to them and escape

and +1 to highway thing
