National Human Rights Commission:<\/span> On 04-11-2025, the National Human Rights Commission (NHRC), India took suo motu<\/span> cognizance of a media report dated 30-10- 2025 that highlighted corruption, bureaucracy and inhumanity as while mourning the death of his only daughter, a grieving father was forced to pay bribes at every step, including an ambulance driver, police, crematorium staff and civic officials in Bengaluru, Karnataka.<\/p>\n

As per the media report, an IIT Madras and IIM Ahmedabad graduate woman working in Bengaluru, suffered a brain haemorrhage on 18-09-2025. When the father called an ambulance after the death of his daughter, the ambulance driver apparently over-charged for the services. When he reported his daughter’s death to the police, they not only displayed a lack of empathy but gave copies of the FIR and post-mortem report only after a bribe was paid. There was also a considerable delay in issuing a death certificate from Mahadevapura Municipal authorities. Despite intervention by a senior officer, the certificate was issued only after the father paid a bribe. Money was again demanded at the crematorium, which the father paid.<\/p>\n

Taking note of the allegations, the NHRC issued notices to the Chief Secretary and the Director General of Police, Karnataka, calling for a detailed report on the matter within two weeks.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
