In this case the main grievance of the complainant is that he had sent a parcel on 6.2.2019 to his son Harmolak Singh at Japan from Post Office, Bhikhi. It is alleged that the parcel has not been delivered to his son at address mentioned on the parcel. The complainant alleged that due to lack of service of OPs the complainant has suffered a lot of mental and practical harassment.
The version of OP is that the parcel was sent to Japan on the given address. But the postal authorities of Japan returned the parcel to India as the address was incorrect. The parcel was returned by the concerned authority for the reason of “Unknown addressee.” It clearly indicates that address given by the complainant was incorrect, so the parcel could not be delivered. The postal authorities Japan returned the same to the post office Bhikhi. Thereafter it was given to Post Man for delivery. The complainant has refused to take the parcel back. The complainant alongwith his counsel appeared and requested that he is ready to receive the parcel in the Commission.
