[Resolved]  Passport Office, Chennai — DD VALIDITY EXPIRED

passport office, chennai — non transparent way of working

Every day, throughout the day hundreds of people personally visit passport office for getting their work done. The least the office can do is to put up proper friendly sign boards to guide them as also operate a full time help desk.

There are no sign boards worth the name, the reception works only for two hours in the morning ( I fail to understnd the logic of this)

Due to this lack of information, people are forced fto approach touts operating around the building for information and to get their work done. I am not sure if there is a collusion with these touts to withhold information to the public.
To make matters worse, these touts are not allowed to help the public in peace. Constant raids to harass them( only temp action taken) make them keep raising their prices to the public, puttiong them in more difficulty.

I suggest that either the passport office becomes public friendly or allow only touts to operate the office with impunity so that at least we will get good service. Like they have outsourced issue of PP to TCS, they can also outsource public relations to another firm. They can perform only as monitoring authority for a job which they have proved incapable of handling by themselves

Passport Office, Chennai — Non receipt of Passport

Dear Sir,

I have submitted my application for the issue of fresh Passport on 29/6/2009 under Normal category. Till date (20/11/09) i have not received passport. I have sent three mails to grievance mail id but no response from the officers. If officers do not respond then mail id will not serve any purpose. I have also checked passport office website and it shows "Your police report is clear. Application is under process". I do not know how long they will process the application.

I have also went in person and submitted the letter to the person responsible and the officer told me that i will receive within a fortnight. So far more than 30 days passed. I have not received passport till now.

Passport officers: Please note people are put to untold suffering due to non issuance of passport despite having their file clear. This type of situation should change.
