Tribune News Service

Chandigarh, May 12
The District Consumer Disputes Redressal Forum has directed city-based Golden Travel Company to refund a sum of Rs 15,000 paid as advance by a complainant, Chander Pal Tyagi, after it failed to provide him with the bus service as promised. It has also been asked to pay Rs 10,000 in compensation for mental agony and harassment along with a litigation cost of Rs 5,000.

Tyagi, a Panchkula resident, had pleaded with the forum that a marriage party was to leave for Merut (UP) for his son’s marriage scheduled for December 7, 2008.

As the members were large in number, two buses were needed, while the travel company could only commit one bus.

The complainant booked one bus from them and hired the second bus from another operator. He was to pay Rs 20,000 as fare and paid Rs 15,000 in advance.

Tyagi claimed that they were to leave Panchkula at 12 pm and had asked the company to send the bus an hour early so that luggage could be loaded on to the bus well in time.

However, the bus failed to reach till noon and the complainant called up the company asking them to send the bus immediately.

In spite of several calls, the bus failed to arrive. Thereafter, the company officials stopped receiving calls from the complainant’s mobile number. He even tried making calls from his relatives’ phones but to no avail.

Tyagi claimed that they waited for the bus till 2 pm following which they were forced to adjust all members in one bus and some cars.

In its reply, the company said as the number of members accompanying the bridegroom was less, the complainant had adjusted all members in one bus and asked their driver to leave.

When the driver demanded the balance amount of Rs 5,000, the complainant allegedly abused him. The matter was then reported to the police.

The forum comprising Lakshman Sharma and Madhu Mutneja observed that it had been proved that the bus had failed to reach the designated place in time.

Therefore, the complainant had to adjust the members of the marriage party in one bus and some cars.
