Apple India — macbook pro 2017's keyboard and display problem

I have a MacBook Pro 2017 3 ports (without touch bar) model [Model number: A1708]. Within 1st year my keyboard’s space bar key gets faulty as I was working one evening and as soon I pressed spacebar key it just came out from one side and I live in India there are 3rd party apple care centres and tho I went to one and they said that this’s my own fault and it comes under damage and repair will costs me ₹35720(~$520) just for a key and that’s too much for a student to pay and that’s too under warranty!!

And now after 1 year of time my Left Shift key got the same problem but this time Apple introduced a “Keyboard service program” and still under this program the repair costs me Rs. 17500.

And now I am using my MacBook without these two keys. However, I sticked these keys with a magic tape and they work fine sometimes.

And today I got an amazing new abnormal problem; I was working in morning, like I was writing a code for website and suddenly a great grey vertical 2 inch strip appeared on the display by itself and I swear I keep my MacBook like my child, I take it's great care. And now apple service centres gave me an expense of Rs. 46500..

I'm a student who is studying in his college and these expenses are far too much for me. I barely managed to buy the MacBook for my college projects and to code and develop content like iOS and Android apps. As you can't develop an iOS app without Xcode to the full extent and there are many other bits and tricks that only work on MacOS.

So can someone please suggest me what should I do about it! Should I file a complaint to the Consumer Court but again it will eat my time and money to do a lawyer and stuff. Or should I keep using it like this because spending almost Rs. 80000 on a Rs. 105, 000 gadget isn't worth it. And I just want to hear from apple why their devices are so delicate to use. Like if you can't use them to full extent then whats the point on buying these...

Update: now the whole screen is flickering, backlight isn’t responding, you can see the backlight bleeding! Blacks are not blacks now! And sometimes whole colours get inverted!
I can’t use my MacBook anymore, my productivity is just on verge of losing!! :)
Thanks Apple!!
