Auto Richshaw
Tampered Mete

Dear Sir/Madam,

I am Amit Malde a resident of A-10, Mahavir Jyot, Opp. Odeon Shopping Centre, Vallabh Baug Lane, Ghatkopar (East), Mumbai. This is complain against the Auto Rickshaw Driver for tampering the meter and charging in excess. Auto Rickshaw no. is MH 03 R 500. I board on the Rickshaw from Nirmal Nagar, Near D-mart, Mulund (west) for journey to Rajawadi, Ghatkopar (east) at 10.57 pm on 5/1 (wednesday). On reaching the destination at 11.25 pm, when I ask the Rickshaw driver, he said Rs.157 and I was shocked, because I came by highway and that too at night when there was not much traffic on the road (it should have hardly cost me somewhere around Rs.80). So I told him this is not fair and tell me how much I should pay and after some arguement we decided to go to nearest police station and after reaching there charges were around Rs.180 according to his meter reading. And hence police officer asked me to pay him Rs.125 and solve the matter. When I told police office that his meter is tampered, he told me to go to Grahak Panchayat and get the issue resolved. It being so late in night, I paid Rs.125, but I want the Auto Rickshaw driver to be punished severely. As he was shameless and was not even scared when we went to Police station. I dont want anyone else to be cheated in the same way as he cheated me. So please look into the matter at the earliest.
