@zomatocare Any update on my concern?

[B Kanrar @bkanrar]

Faced a very bad experience with @zomato. Booked something in #banana leaf but cancelled the order within 3-5 minutes but refund claim or else reactivation of the same order was rejected. Customer care is also not supportive.

Dear @amazonIN very poor state of affairs in terms of product delivery and handling customer grievances. This is the second time products have not been delivered by rude, unprofessional delivery agents. Never ever purchase anything from amazon.

[Joydeep Phukan @joyphukan]

Pesticide residue testing of green leaf before production is key to making entire tea supply chain compliant. We from @TRATocklai are working with @RajivMondal1970 @ArogyamMedisoft to standardise & validate the rapid testing equipment ACLIVIA for green tea leaf which has been built by them . Once the protocol is standardised & validated with LCMS-MS/GCMS-MS results, we should be ready to go to deploy the equipment to the industry which will be a first for the global tea industry.

Darjeeling - nestling in the foothills of the snow capped Himalayas - grows the world's most sought after tea. No other tea anywhere in the world has its unique 'muscatel' flavour and exquisite bouquet. Darjeeling Tea is a registered Geographical Indication (GI). #DarjeelingTea

[Dr P Baruah FounderWorld TeaEnthusiastsAssam India @DRPRADIPBARUAH2]

It is a matter of great concern. However, satisfactory pest management can be achieved adopting Integrated Pest Management measures...Along with the regulations, extensive education, training, demonstration programmes should be encouraged to be done by dedicated NGOs with experts
