Re: [www.keralites.net] Refund not received even after eight months for cancelled flight ticket by Make my trip

Dear All.

This is not only the case with makemytrip.com but with many other Indian and other MNC's operating in India.

1). I had applied for a 'Daily Cash Hospital expenditure Policy' irrespective of any illness in 2011, with Cholamandalem MS General Insurance.Co Ltd. I was hospitalized due to an heart attack and subsequent angiograpghy for 5 days. After discharge from hospital. I applied to Cholamandalem form the claim along with relevant papers and claim form. Even after one month there was no response from there end, not even a telephone call. I then called there claims department, wherein after a lot of call transfer a lady spoke to me and said that my claim is rejected cause my illness was an pre-existing one. When I told her about the policy, where pre-existing illness has got nothing to do with this policy, she just abruptly cut the line. I had written quiet a few Reg Post with Ackw Due letters to Cholamandalem with copy to IRDA regional office. There is no response from any of them. I am going to file a complaint with the consumer forum.

2). I had sent a small package to my son in US through FEDEX in April 2015 and they charged me Rs.3.700/- as freight charges, They said that the package will reach my son in 5 days. Even after 5 days the package did not reach him in the US. When i contacted FEDEX they said that due to sum unforeseen circumstance, the package got held up at Bangalore and it will be delivered to my son in US within the next 3 days. But again after three days there delivery person came and returned back the package to me and said that the package cannot be delivered. When I asked for the refund of the freight charge, he just said that he was informed to only return back the package to the sender. Regarding the refund he told me to speak or write to there office. When I called up there office, they gave a mail id and told me to write to that mail id. Which I promptly did along with all the relevant documents. I got a mail from them stating that they are sorry for the non-delivery of the package and that they had informed there accounts department to refund the freight charges. But till date date, I have not received the refund payment, in-spite of my repeated reminders through email's and through registered post. What do I do.

A very novel ways of cheating the Indian Public. I am sure that FEDEX will dare not try doing this with any of their customers in the US or Europe. Any MNC once they come to India, they cheat their Indian customers, cause the legality in India is very weak and they know that they are above the Indian Lawe, expect the case of a few higher ups.

RE: [www.keralites.net] VASAN EYE CARE --DON'T CARE ATTITUDE

It is for the Govt and its agencies to enquire and take proper action in the matter, not for the public or media to pass judgements in such matters. If it is any deificieny in their services to the public in eye care, it would have been a matter for the public to know

Vasan Eye Care's One-line Denial Shamelessly Evasive

By S Gurumurthy
source: NEW INDIAN EXPRESS
Image Courtesy: Rameshng/Wikimedia Commons
The New Indian Express came across through Twitter, Vasan's one line denial of its exposé ("PC, Vasan Eye Care and Rs 223-cr Black Money" Sept 17, 2015) in a posting by Vasan in its business page on Facebook. Headlined "A note for all", Vasan said in the post, "We vehemently deny the malicious and baseless allegations against our Company in the article." For the rest, the FB post talked about how credible the Vasan board of directors is and how huge are the eye care services provided by it — neither of which was the subject of the NIE exposé. The same note minus the headline was addressed to the Editor of The New Indian Express on Thursday afternoon by fax. Since the note-turned "reply" talks about malicious and baseless allegations in the article, this paper wants to know what those allegations in the article are. The so-called reply is deafeningly silent on every critical question thrown up by the exposé. Here are some of the questions raised by the exposé which Vasan has to answer.
Who is J Dinakaran and what is JD Group?What is Vasan's relation with JD Group?
Did Vasan not receive Rs 8.56 cr as interest-free loan from JD Group?Why did JD Group have to give interest-free loan to Vasan?
Did Dr Arun receive hundreds of crores of black money from JD Group? Did JD Group not tell Vasan about the I-T search on them in Dec 2014?
If not, was Vasan unaware of the raid till September 17, 2015? Who is Dwarakanathan?
Did Vasan not allot 3 lakh shares to Dwarakanathan on October 28, 2008, at a premium? Did he not transfer 1.5 lakh out of it within 48 hours, reportedly at a loss of Rs 1.5 cr to a company controlled by Karti Chidambaram?
● Were the turnover figures of Vasan mentioned in the article correct? ● Can you explain how the top-line pole-vaulted from Rs 16 crore in the earlier year to Rs 311 cr in 2010-11, to Rs 462 cr in 2011-12 and to Rs 604 cr in 2012-13?
● Did Vasan file balance sheet for 2013-14 due in Sept 2014 and when did it file it with company law authority? ● Has it not filed the Income tax return for 2013-14 in 2014?
● How did it file tax return without the balance sheet? ● Did Vasan default in paying tax deducted at source of Rs 19.22 cr?
● Did Vasan not know it is a serious offence which can send Dr Arun to jail? ● Who gave Vasan the assurance no prosecution will be filed?
● Who advised Vasan to write to the CBDT for time to pay the amount? ● Did Vasan's representative meet the CBDT chairman?
● Was Vasan not valued at $1 billion in 2014 by Fitch?● Did Vasan not value itself at Rs 7,000 cr in 2014?
● How is it that the high value company could not pay a relatively small tax deducted from others?And a few more
● Is not Dr A M Arun listed as the 244th richest in with Rs 2,314 cr in Hurun India report of 2015?● Why then did he not help Vasan pay tax deducted from others to the treasury?
● Is Vasan paying its suppliers on time now? ● Is it financially healthy now?
● Has ED not issued notice to Vasan and Dr Arun on the transfer of 1.5 lakh shares from Dwarakanathan to Karti Chidambaram's company? But Vasan's reply does not answer them because either it dare not or it is advised not to. Vasan does not dispute any facts in the article.
While replying to a charge, what is not denied is generally regarded admission. It does not need any super lawyer to advise on such fundamentals. It is better not to reply than make one-line denials with adjectives like malicious and baseless without showing how it is malicious or baseless.
Vasan is deafeningly silent on the hard facts in the NIE exposé that raises questions which Vasan finds unanswerable. Result, Vasan attempts to escape them in a one-line denial. Vasan's ritualistic denial shamelessly ducks the facts in the article and evades the obvious questions the exposé raises. Post Script
Surprisingly there is no response or rebuttal from P Chidambaram or Karti Chidambaram. If the denial of Vasan is on their behalf also, the comments and questions equally hold good for them. But there are far more questions they have to answer than Vasan or Dr Arun. (The author is a leading political and business commentator)

[www.keralites.net] BALI - Island of the Gods°

The Gorgeous Temples of Bali!

There's a reason Bali is called the Island of the Gods, as well as the 'island of a 1000 temples). With its many different geographical areas of beaches, mountains, hills and cliffs, Bali is considered by many a true paradise. But Bali also boasts a very spiritual culture, one that makes use of the many many temples that litter the island. Take a look at some of the stunning sights Bali offers visitors...

Bali has much more than just a few temples, actually, it is known as the 'Island of a thousand temples.' It is without a doubt the biggest tourist attraction in Indonesia.

The temple of Uluwatu can be found high above the sea level, at a heigh of 1997 meters (6551 feet). One interesting fact about the seven Balinese sea temples, is that you can see each of them from the one before it, forming a chain around the Bali coast.

A temple for the goddess of the seas. It was erected on a volcanic lake. Bali has quite a few active volcanoes, and the last volcano eruption took place about 17 years ago, killing thousands.

Life can be good to the Bali tourist. With its varied landscapes of forest terraces, volcanic mountains, hillsides, cliffs, sandy beaches and crystal clear waters. But everywhere you go - there will also be a temple. If you look at the background of this photo, you'll see one there as well!

A gorgeous day filled with a sense of mystery at the Ulun Danu (literally Heart lake) Temple. This lake is a source of water for the rice fields, and the temple was erected here and dedicated to the goddess of the lake.

This is the mother temple, built near teh slopes of Mount Agung, a volcanic mountain. This temple is the largest in Bali, and, some say, the holiest. It is made of 22 shrines on parallel ridges.

A beautiful long exposure shot capturing the Bali dusk.

This temple is another of the seven sea temples, and is called Temple Pulaki.

Pura Gere Perancak, a stone crocodile.

A local monkey at Uluwatu temple. These are not a rare sight among temples and the surrounding jungle.

Rambu Siwi is another of the seven sea temples in Bali. It offers an amazing view of the rice fields on one side and the black sand beaches on the other. Visitors will be introduced to the ancient art of making salt.

Pura Sakenan, located on Serangan Island. This island is actually outside Bali. This is a 100 years old photo.

Remember the Pulaki temple from a few photos ago? This temple has another name: The monkey temple. They are everywhere and you can feed them with peanuts or bananas.

Many believe the waters of the Tirta Empul temple have healing properties. This isn't a sea temple, but an ancient temple from the 10 century. The waters are believed to have healing properties, and anyone is allowed to swim and bathe there.

An elephant cave at Ubud, Bali.

Monkeys guarding the Balinese temple.

Taman Ayun (literally 'Beautiful Garden') is both garden and castle. In 1634, the king of Mengwi wanted a large surrounding moat.

This narrow pathway leads to a small island seemingly floating on the sea.

A spectacular and colorful end of day as seen from the Tanah Lot Temple.

Pura Ulun Danu Bratan, a Hindu temple. Water temples serve the entire region in the outflow area; downstream there are many smaller water temples that are specific to each irrigation association. Built in 1663, this temple is used for offerings ceremony to the Balinese water, lake and river goddess Dewi Danu.
