Re: Passport Office exprience- Rawalpindi
i visited the lahore one and it was drastic. in the first attmpt it was me with my 3months old son. it was very hot but had to join a queue where there were many old and feeble ppl. most of them were bickering over entering into the office. it was the worst experience wen i found that as usual there were many, who had some high officer at their back and they were straight away taken to the concerned token issuing authority.
the 2nd time was the deplorable one but i also proved myself
mu hubby'z khalaz were supposed to perform hujj this year and i was assigned the authority to take them to the office as they were plus 60 and belonged to a village. it was raining cats and dogs. my car was literally floating in the water pooled upoutside the office. anyhow, after wadding across the knee-deep water we joined the queue. after getting the token and other processes, wen it was the time for the so-called intervew which was the very last stage, the concerned aged man raised up a query of khala'z wrong written ages. this was an out of the world news for me as one would surly look for the id card as a valid document and the clerk rejected it and acted very insolentlt. there were many already bothered by him, actually he desired of bribe and that too a handsome one. i contacted the complaint cell and to my luck the director was at his visit and i went to him and narrated the whole incident. the clerk was then warned and he did his job within seconds. this is the picture of the main issuing authority..........
