Sensitizing Inspectors and Officers to facilitate EODB: Inputs Sought
Many of you have been raising the issue of continued inspector raj despite some of the good governance initiatives being rolled out by the Central Government that minimise human interfaces. Below are the key Issues and Root Causes related to Inspector Raj in India as identified by you.
Kindly review them and help identify highly specific solutions that must be implemented at policy and enforcement levels. This includes sensitizing inspectors and field officers and holding them accountable to Government policies and rules. From a business standpoint, this is where rubber meets the road and addressing this will have a direct impact on ease/cost of doing business, FDI, economic growth, jobs creation and prosperity of India
We look forward to your inputs!

5.Inspectors think that it is their right to take bribes
6.Inspectors collude with businessmen and get a monthly amount so that they do not interfere in their business
7.If bribes are not paid, then the businesses will have to run from pillar to post for the licenses
8.In many departments, there are no processes defined for inspections
9.There are no time limits defined for the inspectors to work on a particular kind of a case
10.A corrupt officer/inspector is rarely convicted in our country

14.Inspectors' reports are accepted without verification of correctness

17.Many businessmen, entrepreneurs are not aware of multiplicity of various complex forms
18.Not much action can be taken against any inspector by complaints and it only causes bottlenecks/delays in projects/approvals for a business.

I think now the time has come for the Govt to make a list of the Govt Jobs where it is possible for a person to take bribe.Then Govt can randomly search the assets of such people and punish them.Because the level of corruption has reached to its optimum.This will create a sort of fear in such people. more

When i tried to drop off the rent-a-car at the Goa International airport during my visit last week, it was about 1 AM October 9th, 2019. The traffic inspector was harassing the driver who had come to pick up the car from me at the departure gate. Usually this was avoided by dropping off the car to the "pick up driver" just 200 meters away from the departure terminal. It was a red eye flight and pouring rain. So, I took the car into the drive way (200 meters) at the departure terminal. First the [police inspector had started to harass me. The vehicle pick up driver turned up just then. The police inspector had started his harassment. His junior constable was happy to get this inspector of his back, and was smiling away at the fate of the vehicle pick up driver. If we need to continue Goa to grow as the number 1 state in India for tourism and per capita income, the harassment by traffic inspectors at the departure gates of international airports must stop. more
