I participated in the Mallika-E-Kitchen cooking competition held at Janakpuri on July 25. I was adjudged third prize winner in the competition. There were consolation prizes for all participants. But surprisingly I was awarded with similar gifts for participation as well as for third prize winner. It came to me as a humiliation as gifts for winning third prize and for participation makes no difference in the eyes of LG. It was not expected from such a big company like LG. Immediately I informed the organizer over phone & by email. I was told that it was done inadvertantly and they assured me to replace the gift. But no such action was taken by LG organizer even after one month. I strongly felt on that day that there was some manipulation being done by the organizer while they were distributing the prizes and gifts were changed by them.
This attitude of LG will discourage participants to take part in future. I don't want to retain two similar gifts and I want to return the gift for third prize back to LG.
