We are in to engineering contracting business. Many times we send materila such as pumps, airconditioners etc to various building sites in Pune city area . Everytime some local people appear on the site and they claim that they are Mathadi workers. They come on bullet with gold ornaments etc. They dont look like workers. They say we have to pay them money ranging from 2000 for small tempo to 50000 for container load. Most surprising thing is they never do any work. The unloading ,shifting, lifting is done by our staff. But still they demand money. . What the rule says in such case. Which govt office can help us. Can we complaint to anti-extortion department.

Hello Chandrashekhar,
CiteHR members belonging to Pune would be in a better situation to give specific suggestions.
But, prima-facie, this is a direct & clear extortion racket......complaining to the Anti-extortion cell of the Pune Police is the only way.
However, before you go ahead, suggest get some background about these guys........are they locals, do they 'seem' to have any political backing/background, do other companies in your line of business also have this problem, etc.
Answers to such queries would enable to fine-tune your scale of approach towards the steps you CAN & NEED to take.
