While there's room for growth, their efforts show a positive trend in customer support. We hope The Hindu will keep up the work and continue to help more customers with their concerns even better 🤝

the paper given by delivery boys in noida

Address: Gautam Buddh Nagar, Uttar Pradesh, 201301

Sir
Although i have paid on 23rd january 2018 rs.999, it is unfortunate to note that you have not bothered to supply the newspaper and the promised bag. Your people have mentioned that complaint is closed.
Never expected this from your end.
Please solve this long pending issue immediately and oblige.br...
