Salem: The Anna effect apparently hasn't trickled down to Salem to Tamil Nadu.  Today, corrupt officials of the Regional Transport Office (RTO) which issues driving licenses, vehicle registration and compliance certificates etc. - were seen trying to dump wads of notes out of windows in their offices.

Officers of the local vigilance department raided the office and found more than 1.5 lakhs in cash- all alleged bribes.

The raid was filmed by some local cameramen. Cash was also found hidden in office files and registers
