Dear @Nanda_Kalal

To resolve the delay and ₹8,000 bribery demand by the Supply Inspector at Dharwad, first escalate to the District Supply Officer (DSO) at the Office of Civil Supplies, Dharwad. Simultaneously, file a formal grievance on the Karnataka Civil Supplies Department through the state public grievance portal or call toll-free 1967 / 1902.

If there’s no action, approach the Karnataka Lokayukta or lodge an FIR under the Prevention of Corruption Act. Retain all copies and complaint acknowledgments.
If still need help, reply to us.
