Employee's Providents Fund Organisation [EPFO] — pf withdrawal claim rejected

Address:

Jaipur, Rajasthan, 302034

I submitted my pf withdrawal claim on 12th oct.2019 and today, 4th dec. I got a text stating my claim has been rejected. When i open the link from the text to know the reason of rejection, it redirected me to https://passbook.epfindia.gov.in/MemberPassBook/Login which says 'system is down for maintenance". And when i dial [protected] to get the pf balance sms, the response is"not available on your number", although that number worked fine for me since years until today. Dialing the toll free pf no.[protected] also states number is busy, since 2 hours. Government system here is blinding the people especially he tax payers by not giving justifications & displaying such irresponsible behavior. What kind of an absurd rule is this where an ex-employee can't withdraw his own hard-earned money & claim gets rejected after big downtime of 50 days. And then we employees have to pay tax every month even before receiving salary. Such is the corrupt, bureaucratic, red tapism culture of government in our country which is deteriorating life quality of middle class employees. This is sheer high time government system rules, procedures, policies should be redefined in favor of mass. As of now, someone should take responsibility of getting my own pf money withdrawn.
