Passport Office Srinagar — passport authorities harassing for issuing passport to 12 months old kid

Dear sir/madam

I applied for passport of my kid who was 8 months old when the application was submitted to psk srinagar on 11.10.2018 vide file no. Sg01c[protected]. However till date passport has not been issued to my child and every time when i call to the concerned psk to check the status, they will just say that it will get processed. At one point of time they told me to submit address proof and mother’s proof to enable them to issue the passport. After submitting the necessary documents, there was again no update on passport issuance. When i contacted them they told me that i need to again submit documents for address and mother’s proof. On this i complained to the grievance cell, which even though of no use. After complaining in delhi, i checked with psk srinagar and to my utther surprise i was informed that police verification has not been received for 12 months kid. That astonishing how come they remember after 5 months that police verification is required for an infant and even if police verification was required why same was not initiated when passport application was submitted. I am nri and this the worst thing that my own country india is putting me through. I don’t have any expectations from this portal, but still trying my luck and frustration.
