Well done

Recently, Bangalore City Corporation (or whoever is currently incharge of maintaining the roads) announced that Rs.100 would be paid to anyone reporting a pothole in certain sectors of Bangalore. And what did some Bangaloreans do? Went and dug some potholes!! Cheerio. It happens only in India :)

I never heard of this. AFAIK there hasn't been a single instance where someone was actually paid a hundred rupees.

They obviously chose the "right" sectors of the city. Apparently, many tried to claim but weren't considered eligible. I read about this on the BBC Website:
