Lokayukta Traps Clerk for ₹3,000 Bribe in Bhopal

In Bhopal, a clerk from the Water Resources Department was caught by the Lokayukta police for taking a bribe of ₹3,000.

The complainant, Monu Napit, had approached the clerk to process his mother's pension after his father, who was a chowkidar in the department, passed away.

The clerk initially demanded ₹5,000 and later ₹4,000.

When the complainant refused to pay more, he lodged a complaint with the Lokayukta.

The police set a trap and caught the clerk red-handed when he accepted the ₹3,000 bribe.
