Akbar Travels — My ticket is cancelled without prior notice (very rude manner)

I am a Professor in University, Jeddah.
I have booked a ticket on March 1 for a travel from Muscat to Jeddah. Travel date is on March 12. Booking reference number is AT[protected]. My passport number is S4657803.
After that there was a mail from Akbar ticketing division to send some documents for the confirmation. But I missed this mail because I was in on-road trip for 1-2 days. By that time they cancelled my ticket without any notice and waiting my reply. This kind of service is very annoying and never acceptable.
On March 3, I had replied and sent all the documents required.
But they are not listening my grievance, saying only your refund is under process. What a disturbing answer!!.
I want my ticket back on the same date and with same fare.
I had very struggled to book the ticket on that day with reasonable fare. Now the fare is too high and I can’t book the ticket.
Please take an action to give the ticket back, else I will miss my meeting and classes, please.

I don't agree with their argument.

1) I have been booking tickets for 5-6 years from AkbarTravels and I never received any such 'security' message before. Also, they didn't mention it during the booking itself. I didn't expect this kind of mail too and after the booking, I was busy with the trip and its quarantine preparation.

2) As per their claim, they never mentioned any 24 hours in their mail (attached email). I had replied to them the third day (March 3rd) when I noticed their mail. But by that time they cancelled my ticket which was on March 12th.

3) Why don't they give a minimum of 2-3 days to reply if the tickets are not very nearby?

4) Because of their cancellation, I had to pay a high price for the ticket.

5) I need compensation for the stress, extra money, and damage that happened.
