Sir,
The facts are being brought in your notice to take necessary action.
My father Mr. Kashmiri Lal has expired. So, after his expiry deceased widow Mrs. Satyawati is the beneficiary of Gas connection taken in his name.
I, Brij Mohan Kundi has been running my family including myself and my wife, my son and daughter in law and one kid. So, due to dire need I applied from Phagwara Gas Service, Industrial Area, Phagwara to allot me a new LPG connection. The said agency called me one day to get the connection. On my approach to Indane’s M/S. Phagwara Gas Service I was pressurized to purchase Gas Stove alongwith the Gas cylinder. On my denial the agency holder’s staff told me to give application in writing that We don’t need Gas Stove. On submission of the application I was asked that we shall make verification at your house that whether you are in need of the connection or not. Last week two Phagwara Gas Service unauthorized persons came for verification and remarked that there are already one Gas connection running in the house so they can not get the connection. Sir, the points of consideration are:
1. That I am not interested to purchase hot plate with connection from Phagwara Gas Service.
2. Whether under any law Phagwara Gas Service can force the consumers that our mother should cook her meal herself and we can’t cook her meal.
3. Whether under any law Phagwara Gas Service or Indane deny the consumer’s his bonafide right.
4. Whether the Gas Agency can force the public to purchase gas stove from the agency.
5. Whether Phagwara Gas Service has been empowered with the judicial rights to allot/ deny and make investigations without any order from the concerned department of Food & Civil Supplies and Indian Oil Corporation, Limited.
6. The matter is concerned with Public interest so kindly take stern action in the matter.
7. When all the valid documents have been delivered and the connection has been released by Indian Oil Corporation then on what orders the said connection has been with-held.
8. That Phagwara Gas Service is continuously harassing the consumer by making inspections without any order and without any authorization from any Government Agency and unnecessarily putting inconvenience to the consumers on the pretext of inspections.
Relief Sought:
Kindly provide me the Gas connection immediately without hot plate and take stern action against the dealer.
Thanking you,
Yours faithfully,
