2. In brief, the son of the Appellant Shri Nishant Katyal was admitted to the respondent Academy for a crash course of AIEEE and paid Rs.13,000/-. The course commended w.e.f. 27.3.2010. The appellant vide his letter dated 27.3,2010 asked the respondent/OP to refund the amount paid. An amount of Rs.10,000/- was refunded by the respondent/OP academy on 28.3.2010 after retaining an amount of Rs.3,000/-.
3. The complainant filed the complaint before the District Forum and prayed for refund of the amount of Rs.3,000/- and the amount of Rs.98,000/-. The District Forum observed that the appellant in question had withdrawn from the course without any fault on the part of the OP academy. In his own letter dated 27.3.2010, the appellant did not allege that there was any deficiency on the part of the OP/respondent academy.
