Dear Sirs,
I am Santosh Asbe working in a global IT organization and want to bring you notice the issue faced by a common man like me and i want your assistance for this to be resolved.
I had parked my car on PD Hinduja road ,near Khar telephone exchange as i was there to register my Leave and license agreement at around 515pm on Saturday 7th June. I had my wife and 4 month daughter in the car. My car AC was working fine when i reached. I had parked the car behind a tree on PD Hinhuja road and not obstructing the traffic.No sign of NO PARKING was mentioned. There were multiple other cars parked angularly over there.
After registration, when i came out at 6pm, did not find the car and was informed that it had been towed by traffic police station on the same road connecting SV road. While paying the fine, i was told i was charged for Angular parking which was interesting as the tree could not allow me to park parallel parking.
Since my 4 month old daughter was already hungry and crying relentlessly , i paid the fine and left. During my return to home in Andheri west i realized the AC was not working. Initially i thought that it might the car was in sun for long but then after 30 min, AC could not cool the car. I took my daughter home first as had cried throughout my return due the non function of AC in the Mumbai heat. Then I went to Ford Service on Sunday morning to check the damage. They told me the condenser has been damaged and the oil has spilled out and it needed replacement. I ask him how could this damage would have happened, he mentioned it might be due towing vehicle. I had to spend Rs 12,000 for the repair of damages done.
My sincere request is you to make the towing people responsible for the damages and in long term such incidents don't occur and bring the confidence in people that there is justice will be provided to an common man .
regards,
Santosh Asbe
