PF withdrawal request not yet processed even after 9 years

I am a resident of Pune but holding a company (vMoksha Technologies) PF account in Bangalore. My PF account number is – KN/BN/35006/608. I left that organization in Dec. Since then (almost nine years) I am following-up with the Bangalore PF office for my PF withdrawal.

It is ridiculous to know that it takes such a long time to get my own PF amount back. Also, there is no clear communication about the reasons why my PF withdrawal request is not yet processed.

Since last multiple years I am following-up with PF office in Bangalore and other government offices several times to understand the status of my PF withdrawal but no luck. Also, PF grievance (REF # SROWF/E/04330) filed online did not result in any response from Bangalore PF department.

For your understanding below are all the previous postal communications made to PF offices and government departments -
