[Resolved]  Indian Post Office — Post office Savings account for Senior citizens-Fraud

Address:Chennai, Tamil Nadu

My Father who is a senior citizen had put his retirement money into Post office Savings account, through a Post office instituted agent, a lady.
The original amount deposited was Rs. 9,00,000 (9 lakhs). The passbook was given to him by the agent mentioning this amount also. Few months he had received the interest return, but after a few months the interest payment was stopped. When checking with the post office the bigger scam came out. The agent had manipulated the amount and had deposited 9000 instead of 900000. In the passbook she just added 2 extra '0's and she pocketed all the remaining money. On checking it came to light, few more people were affected.
We raised the issue with the Post office, but they say, they cannot help.
We had informed the Police, but as per them this case now is being handled by Central govt..
My Father is in such a shock and his health and mental state is being affected.
The lady agent is in jail but no idea when we can get our money back.

PLAYING WITH THE CAREER OF STUDENTS
Though in some area where other services could not reach Indian Postal services as a part of Govt. obligation reaches and yes in rural areas we have no other option !!!!

While in urban areas... yes email and courier services has kicked Indian Postal Services out of the Competition. Though this are only my views others may differ...
just to suppor5t my view I am telling you that I had done a "SPEED POST" to my relatives from Mathura to Dhanbad and Mathura to Bokaro(two letters) on 07-03-08 but till date 15-03-08 it has still NOT REACHED !!!!! and instead of looking into the issue to get it reach the destination instead they are telling me to lodge a complaint and they will do an enquiry?????

The details of the SPEED POSTS are...

1) EU[protected] TO BOKARO

2) EU[protected] TO DHANBAD

My view is I am not interested in any inquiry instead more interested in the letter to reach its destination!!! after all it was "SPEED POST" the fastest and reliable service from Postal department -- as they claim!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

so why people shoould not switch over to other alternatives ????

These things are happened in front of the post master7
