[Resolved]  Hp Gas — Request of release of new gas connection

Address:

Saharsa, Bihar

Sir, With due respect, It is submitted that I have applied for HP Gas Connection On-line vide Registration Referance No. :[protected] on 07.02.2013 and waited for response of the distributor i.e. BIR BAJRANG HP GAS GRAMIN VITRAK Address: HP GAS DISTRIBUTOR, VILL+POST:SAUR BZARA, BANGAON, Distt : Saharsa, Bihar, Pin 852221 But there was no response up to 02.03.2013. I have personally contacted the distributor on 02.03.2013 and requested for the connection mentioning that I have already applied for the connection on-line. They given us the prescribed form and asked for submission of the same dully filled with required documents in hard. I have done so on 02.03.2013. After that they enlisted my hard copy form at Serial. No. 91 dated 02.03.2013 in his 'register for issue of the Gas Connection' and demanded an amount of Rs.4000/- for the connection of one cylinder without Gas Stove (It is to mention here that I have requested for one cylinder and purchased the stove from market and enclose the cash-memo with the application). When I inquired about the amount, they given a figure of sum total of Rs.2055/- + price of one cylinder gas ie Rs.438/- and replied that the rest is their benefit. I have refused to pay Rs.4000/- and offered Rs.2400/-. Then, they refused to take Rs.2400/- and asked me to wait. I do mention here that there was less than 492 consumers when I applied on 07.02.2013 which is now about 667. It means, about 175 consumer have been added after my application, but I am still waiting. On 05.03.2013, I have contacted to the regional office at Patna, Bihar at their Telephone no.[protected] and explained the fact. They told me that I should go to the distributor and make a call to them for talking to the distributor. I done so, but there was no response from the regional office when I ring to them. This was just embarrassing for me before the distributor. I have again contacted to the Regional Office on next day. They pic-up my call. I once again requested him to direct the distributor to issue the connection. They contacted them, but been told that the regulator is not available. So as the connection can't be released. After that the distributor make me fool sometimes saying that the cylinder is not available, sometimes the regulator is not available, sometimes the hodg pipe is not available. But they issuing the connection to whom those pay him money according to his demand. In this matter I kindly request that the above distributor be directed to issue the connection without any delay and the matter of black money be investigated. Thanking you.
