Indian Oil Corp — Luring of consumers through vague schemes

In the beginning of the year 2009, the public of Jammu region was lured by big hoardings of Indian Oil Corporation installed at selected/big Petrol Pumps by showing them dreams through their 'Car in a Tank Offer' that they can win the prizes of Car Sx4, A-Star besides other prizes if they buy Extra Power petrol worth Rs 300/- and SMS the bill no. to 53636. The lasdt date for this scheme was fixed as 30 April 2009. Even after a lapse of approx three months, no body is aware whether Indian Oil Company has not declared draw of that scheme or otherwise. If so, why the results of such draw were not made available through print media or other means. I fail to understand if big horadings can be used to attract the people for participation in the scheme 'Car in a Tank Offer', why the results of draw for that scheme have not yet been made available to the public. It apears that the results of that scheme have been declared by the officers of IOC in their office(s) to distribute the prizes among their relatives or beloved ones. I am quite surprised that the so called big Indian Oil Corporation after luring the public through its previous scheme 'Car in a Tank Offer', is again trying to befool the general public of J&K through another schemes for which big hoardings have again been installed. May I know as to whether top bosses of Indian Oil Corp would pay any attention towards this grey area where general public is being made fool through one or the other lschemes luring them of winning attractiver prizes if they purchase their petro products worth rupees so and so.

I fully endorse the views express by Mr Anil Gupta as the Indin Oil Corporation in connivance with their petrol pump dealers are luring the general public on the name of one or the other scheme through their big hoardings which can be seen installed at every petrol pumps. Later on, the prizes of these schemes are distributed among their own relatives, workers etc.
