Two RTO inspectors caught taking bribes in Bengaluru

Monday, 13 April 2026, 10:46 · 1 min read

Two probationary motor vehicle inspectors and a lorry driver have been arrested in Bengaluru (India's southern technology hub) after being caught red-handed accepting a bribe, according to the Lokayukta Police (Karnataka's anti-corruption authority). The inspectors, Kiran S.P. and Dinesh Kumar D.K., were posted at the Nelamangala Regional Transport Office and had allegedly demanded payment to allow a vehicle to pass through a toll checkpoint. The case matters as it highlights ongoing corruption concerns within transport regulation in one of India's fastest-growing cities.
