When Mr. @OmarAbdullah tweeted about ending the VIP culture and green corridors, I genuinely believed this practice would stop, and the use of hooters and beacon lights would cease! But! Unfortunately, it continues unabated!
At times, they honk aggressively behind your car, even when thereโs no space to make way, and their PSOs in the pilot gypsy direct you to move aside, causing unnecessary harassment to the common man on the road ..
They display such urgency and blatantly disregard traffic rules, as if they are rushing to an oath-taking ceremony at Raj Bhawan!
@myvoltas Hey the worst company in the world โฆnone of your service technicians or their supervisors ever pick up any calls or return a call..who is going to give me compensation for all the inconvenience and incompetence. STILL NO RESOLUTION..JUST LIES LIES LIES
@myvoltas
This is in response to my service request no ย 24052019401
I have a voltas 2 ton hot and cold split ac working in the operation theatre of my hospital. I had registered amc maintainence with reg no 24040100449 on 1st april after which new amc was done for a year
Then on 7th may my ac wasnt working and i filed a complaint with reg no 24050716709 after which roshan and rakesh supervisor were alloted the job and they came and told me compressor is not working and it needs replacement and on 9th May Mr Ravi Sodhi came and replaced
any service also the team looks very understaffed.
I wouldnt recommend anyone to buy voltas ever again.
Please send the service technicians today or else i will have to go to consumer court for reimbursement of work at my hospital

All of my work in my hospital is getting delayed due to this inconvenience.
My understanding is either your
My understanding is either your service technicians dont have an iota of a knowledge about the product they just do hit and miss trials what the problem is .
I am totally fed up with the annual maintenance contract system even after paying a good amount of money i dont get any
the compressor and capacitor and told me it will work fine now. Then again on 18th may i had to place a new request 24052019401 since my ac wasnt working.
The same people Roshan and Rakesh got appointed for the job on 19th May and i have been trying to call them atleast 20 times
Basic acts of courtesy are often absent in India. Holding doors for others, appreciating public servants, thanking the waiting staff at restaurants -- I've seen very few people do this.
Several times, @ShachiGambhir and I have observed whenever we thank waiters for bringing us extra cutlery or refilling our glasses of water, they're quite surprised and don't know how to react. Because they don't get it often.
When I went to the US, I saw everyone thanking the bus driver when getting off. I did that last evening in Bengaluru and got weird looks from fellow passengers -- because none of them are used to it. But the driver smiled and awkwardly said thank you to me as well.
Another extremely common gesture in the West is holding doors for others behind you. And every time I did it there, I would get a loud thank you with a wide smile. Needless to say, I do it here in India too. But, nobody cares. No thank you, no courteous smile, or anything. That doesn't stop me from continuing to do it, but it would be nice if we started appreciating such small gestures. I've seen very few people hold doors for others here. Everyone seems to be in a hurry. So maybe start doing it next time you're in a mall or a restaurant?
Every time you utilize someone's service, thank them. Whether it's an auto rickshaw driver, a flight attendant, or the person who cleans your table at a restaurant. A tiny gesture can make their day!
India's obsession with SUVs is something I'll never understand. I've been a car enthusiast forever. A lower center of gravity and reduced body roll mean supreme comfort.
People rave about Innovas and Fortuners, but frankly, they're the most uncomfortable vehicles I've been in. Your body bobs from side to side, making you feel much more tired than if you were traveling in a sedan of a similar price range.
Fuel efficiency is better in sedans.
Sudden turns and the turning radius are much better in sedans.
Driving or being driven in a sedan is far superior compared to an SUV or micro SUV. It's not as if we are off-roading or traversing the jungles of Nagarhole daily. In fact, your Seltos, Creta, or whatever else, actually can't even handle 4x4 terrain.
The only explanation here is that Indians, being generally shorter, just feel good driving something bigger to compensate for their lack of height. It's a self-confidence thing and not much of an automobile thing.
This SUV mania has driven sedans out of the market, which is pretty sad because those are actually built for comfortable drives on uncomfortable Indian roads. How can the entire country collectively disregard logic over an expensive purchase that often ends up with a 9-10% loan?
Back in #Chennai after months. Itโs painfully hot and humid, of course.
Stepped out of the terminal, had a strong filter coffee at the kiosk (my standard practice) and booked a cab while standing there.
As usual, the @Uber_India driver refused to arrive until I told him my destination, the billed amount and mode of payment.
Then demanded โน150 over and above the displayed amount, refused to cancel the ride, was incredibly rude, and hung up on me.
I went to the prepaid counter. Paid more than the Uber for the ride, which is alright. All seemed to be going as per planโฆ but then the drivers had a tussle over who would get the ride. I waited in the heat until they sorted themselves out.
Finally, got into a car. The driver is screaming into his phone through the ride, talking to someone - a friend probably. They are laughing over something, not fighting. He seems in an ok mood, another rarity in the Chennai Cab-Verse.
We donโt speak each otherโs language. Thereโs no other way of communicating except showing him directions on google maps. He nods in approval at the destination. In that silent exchange, weโve confirmed our transaction and our sealed our judgement of each otherโs abilities.
ACโs not working well either. Itโs worse when the car AC runs only the blower - maybe because the coolant liquid has run out. It creates more humidity in the vehicle. Sigh.
Iโm sweating away in the sweltering heat, my thighs leaving imprints onto the sun-baked rexine seat. My T-shirt almost velcroโd to the back rest.
Sorry, whoever gets this cab next. Iโm sure the sweat will evaporate eventually, leaving a salted imprint of my not-so-joyride.
I am thinking of the South East Asian guy I spotted at the prepaid counter - excited about his journey to India.
I wonder if he was ghosted by his Uber as well. I wonder if heโs being welcomed by the remnants of someoneโs sweat on the seat of his prepaid car.
I know of all the things he expected to take back from India, salted memories of another passenger wasnโt on the cards.
Please see an Ophthalmologist for your eye-related disorders and not an Ayurveda practitioner.
Spectacles are essential for correction of refractory errors which can also be replaced with contact lens and sometimes complete lens/spectacle free using newer varieties of minimally-invasive interventional management - depending on the underlying eye disease.
Building a dam around the eyes with all-purpose flour and filling it with oil and herbal mumbo-jumbo does not make one go spectacles free.
"Netratarpan" is a fraud practice.This is deception on the patients, especially young children who would like to get rid of spectacles.
Practices such as Ayurveda leeches on desperation of the patient and family to make a business out of it. It has never helped anyone, anywhere, except the businesses and stakeholders.
