MUMBAI AIRPORT STAFF ASK FOR EXTRA MONEY

I am a regular traveller from International and Domestic destinations.
Whenever I travel, I always came across such situation of airport
staff asking money from travellers. Not only the temporary staff who
pick baggage but also the Airways staff. If we give Rs. 10, they ask
for 100. Once, a member of Jet Airways asked me Rs. 2500 and bottle of
Imported Whisky for giving me extension of 10 kgs from my
International baggage. When I said no, they threatened me but the
officials never believed me and they never took action.
The temporary staff and Airways staff also ask for me.. If we do not
pay, they say, we will not let you in the plane and till last of my
boarding of plane, they looked me with threatening eyes.
I gave them Rs. 2500 plus the 40,000 Rs. charge of extra baggage just
because I am a travelling alone and a GIRL...
