Hi.
I am the first in my family to want to go to college in Pune.
But, I need my Nagarikta to join and be eligible for scholarship based on marks. I have very good marks in CBSE but I couldn't join this year becuase I have no Nagarikta. It is very frustrating.
My parents have lived in India for more than 15 years and don't have their Nagarikta. I don't know why they don't and it is not important to me anymore. I have discussed this with so many people that I am tired of discussing this. I don't think they understand how important it is to go to college and get good employment. I am ready to do what it takes to go to college.
If I go to Kathmandu, my parents say that I will need to pay bribe at the Nagarpalika to get my Nagarikta. If worst comes to worst, I am ready to do that. But I am hoping I don't have to.
Does anyonw know
1. What documents I require in Kathmandu to get Nagarikta?
2. If the Nagarpalika asks me for bribe, is there a 'going rate'? I have some savings but I don't want to be cheated. My parents are ready to help me with 20,000 indian rupee.
3. Are there agencies in Maharashtra, like for driver license, that can help me obtain Nagarikta? If so, how much do these cost?
As you can see, I am very tired of running pillar-to-post. I only know India since I was very young when I came here. It is very discouraging to do so much study and get into good college but not be able to join because I don't have nagarikta. And now I have told the college that I am Nepalese and I can't tell them I am Indian.
Please give practical suggestions. I am sure there are otehr people in my situation but we don't know where to look for help.
