[Resolved] India Post — contents of parcel-missing

A ajay shankar singh from Mumbai, Maharashtra Oct 21, 2021 This thread was updated on Oct 21, 2021

This has reference to parcel no. B-13 sent by my parents from Varanasi on 17.09.2007. The said parcel was delivered at my Mumbai residence on 28.09.07 and was received by my wife. On opening the parcel, to our utter disbelief, we discovered that more than 50% of the contents of the parcel were missing. Originally the parcel contained (i) two sets of ladies dress material (salwar, suit, dupatta), (ii) two sets of children dresses, and (iii) one silver ornament. The aforesaid items were costing around Rs.2000/- and were insured for the same value. However on opening the parcel we found only one set of ladies dress material costing around Rs.550/- and one book “All Maharashtra Law Reporter (criminal)”. Other items as mentioned above were missing. My wife immediately called back the postman and informed him about the missing items. The postman put the entire blame on Varanasi post office and said that the staff there has removed the contents. My wife called the Dahisar-Mumbai post office and spoke to an official over phone to inform him about the whole incident. The said official rejected the claim on the basis that the parcel has already been by us and as such nothing can be done. But sir, I fail to understand that unless a parcel is opened how does one know that the contents are missing. Moreover the parcel was sealed and at cursory glance it seemed to be in proper condition. But on close observation it was evident that the parcel packet has been tampered with. The stitching on the side, which had been opened to steal the contents, was totally different from the ones on the other two sides. Moreover the material that was used to seal the parcel had been removed and the packet was resealed. This was evident from the remains of the original sealing materials that were still there on the packet. I firmly believe that the said parcel has been opened by one of your employees and the contents have been stolen. We request you to initiate an enquiry and bring the culprit to book. An early action in the matter will be highly appreciated. Was this information helpful? No (1) Yes (8)

TO:
THE CHIEF POST MASTER
CHENNAI G.P.O.

DEAR SIR,

SUB:THEFT OF MATERIAL SENT BY REGD.POST

I HAVE SENT ONE REGISTERED POST PARCEL ON 5TH APRIL'08 VIDE RECEIPT NO. RP E 9810 DT 05/04/08
TO MR.GIRI RAJ KUMAR, 197, CHOTI BAMANPURI, BAREILLY - 243001

THE PARCEL CONTAINED TWO SAREES ALONG WITH STITCHED BLOUSES, THREE CHURIDHAR SETS, SKIRTS AND BANGLES ALL VALUED AROUND RS.20000/-. THE PARCEL WAS DELIVERED ON 12TH/13TH. I WAS SURPRISED TO BE INFORMED THAT TWO SAREES, TWO CHURIDHAR SETS AND THE BANGLES WERE MISSING FROM THE PARCEL. INSTEAD SOME CHEAP CHILDREN WEAR WERE STUFFED IN THE PARCEL. THIS MUST HAVE BEEN DONE TO MAKE AN IMPRESSION THAT IT WAS MIXED UP DURING THE PACKING. SINCE THE MATERIAL WAS PACKED IN OUR PRESENCE AFTER VERIFICATION BY AN OFFICER OF G.P.O. THERE IS NO NECESSITY FOR ANY RE-OPENING OR RE-PACKING OF THE PARCEL.

THE DRESSES WERE MEANT FOR A WEDDING AND I THOUGHT IT WILL BE IN THE SAFE HANDS OF POSTAL DEPARTMENT FOR TIMELY DELIVERY. THESE TYPE OF INCIDENTS MAKES THE PUBLIC LOSE THIER CONFIDENCE IN THE POSTAL DEPARTMENT.

PLEASE KINDLY LOOK INTO THE MATTER AND INFORM ME THE ACTION TAKEN AND ALSO MAKE GOOD THE LOSS SUFFERRED BY ME TO THE TUNE OF RS.18000/-

THANKING YOU,

YOURS FAITHFULLY,

A.P.RAVINDRAN

To,
THE CHIEF POST MASTER
HYDERABAD,

I thought Post Office delivery would be safe to send things at home. when i reached in PO ( gachibawli ) the lady sitting at counter told me that we dont accept paper packing you have to pack it in cloth. i went back and given 50 rs for packing to Courier person to pack properly with cloth.

Then i give it that package to the lady. ( she was telling me that your parcel would be torn and your stuff would be out etc etc if you dont pack it in cloth, i could not understand her thought that indirectly she was saying post office person will took things from this package :) )

I sent 4 tube for cosmetics ( and they were really costly ) costs me 1500 rs. But when they reached at home, we found that it has only one small tube thats because it was not visible directly after removing cloth & paper packing. They took three tubes ( 1400 Rs) and sealed the parcel exactly same way.

My Parcel No. is
Gachibowli Po no. 500032.
RP A 138
To vishnu datt Sadulpur.
Counter No.1.OPCode 00p
to Pin 331023. Date : 30/03/2009

i am not sure if i can use post office for this kind of service again.

let me know if you need more detail on this.

Regards

opened parcel sent through registered post — missing articles from registered parcel

i am dr neha. i had sent a parcel through the registered post (India post) from flower bazaar, Chennai office to my parents in panchkula, Haryana. the parcel was opened when it was delivered, some of the articles were missing from it and instead paper was filled in it and repacking was attempted by the India post official tape. this clearly shows that the parcel was tampered at the post office itself. but the post office people are not paying attention to my complaint and are not ready to take its responsibility. according to them, registered post is not insured and guarantee is only for parcels sent through speed post and not registered post.
please help me.
