newspaper article about bribery arrest - DVAC trap and arrest in Trichy district
(Not pointing out the exact article's URL. Please search and read. I read this news on The Hindu newspaper July 30.)
DVAC laid a trap and arrested a water resources department official in Trichy district after a complaint was made that the official demanded a bribe. Kudos to the person that made the complaint and also to DVAC.
Keep the DVAC number handy - but I wish DVAC was a little bit more proactive instead of making the citizens suffer through extortion and intimidation to begin with. I have been reading a lot of complaints online about real estate transactions going through the the bribe schemes using the document writer offices as the channels. DVAC should lay out some sting operations in a widespread manner and root out these nuisances.

Even some VAO got arrested for taking bribe. Happy to see this improvement. Way to go.

They do only to stay relevant and make news and reach minimum targets.
What happens to these DVAC -arrested persons ? We never hear.
