[Resolved] Regional Passport Office Chennai — Non-receipt of passport | |
It is more than 8 months since I submitted the passport application, still I did not receive the passport. Police verification was done and the report was clear. I raised my grievances with the Passport Grievance cell, but did not get any reply from them. Was this information helpful? | |

Dear Sir
Sub: Addressing Grievances for obtaining Passport
I wish to state that, I was working with National Dairy Development Board, which comes under Ministry of Agriculture Government of India, from 25.07.1979 to 14.10.2006 and I had a put 27 years of service in NDDB and finally opted for voluntary retirement in the year of 2006. Since then I am presently staying at Chennai doing Electrical Consultancy works on small time basis and presently staying in a rented house. However my Ration Card & Voter ID address proof is at my native place i.e. birth place at kongupatti village, Salem district.
Recently, I have been engaged as Electrical Consultant by HSCC Delhi for the job of 150 Bedded hospitals at Dicloya Srilanka. The project is being executed through ministry of external affairs, Government of India.
Since I am being the electrical consultant I will have to visit the project site immediately since the project is nearing completion for inspection. Hence I badly need of passport.
Therefore, I had approached Chennai passport office, and they have clearly stated that I am not eligible to apply for passport since I don’t have two proof of address at Chennai. And they have informed me verbally that I should apply for my passport at Coimbatore Passport Seva Kendra with two proof of valid address of my Ration Card and Voter ID.
Accordingly, I had applied for passport at Coimbatore Passport Seva Kendra in the month of March 2013 and mentioning my permanent residence address as well as my present address in the application. Finally I got an appointment order from Coimbatore Passport Seva Kendra to appear for verification on 25.04.2013. Which I had appeared with all my originals.
During verification and interview, the Coimbatore Passport Seva Kendra officials out rightly have informed me that my passport cannot be processed at Coimbatore office since I am working at Chennai that too after collecting the fees of Rs.1500, although I clearly stated in my original application about my present address.
However I have pleaded with superior officer of Coimbatore Passport Seva Kendra officials that since I am not eligible to apply to Chennai passport office. Hence i had applied in Coimbatore Passport Seva Kendra. Even then he had turned down my request and put the application on HOLD and stating that I should apply for passport at Chennai office with my copy of Chennai rental agreement along with copy of copy of bank passbook. Initially when I checked up with Chennai passport office they have clearly told that copy of Chennai rental agreement cannot be treated as proof of address.
May I therefore kindly request you to personally intervene the above case and let me know by return mail the line of action, I am suppose to take since my presence at srilanka project site is immediately required.
Once again I request you to please treat my afore mentioned grievances on top priority. And my file no is CB[protected].
Thanks & Regards
