Indian Consumer Forums Award Compensation in Health Insurance and Airline Cases
Two consumer forums in India ruled in favor of complainants against service providers. In Himachal Pradesh, a woman won Rs 2.65 lakh after her health insurer rejected her ovarian cyst surgery claim citing a waiting period, which the forum deemed unfair due to continuous coverage since 2019. In Chhattisgarh, two men received Rs 70,000 compensation after an airline lost their checked baggage following removal of a prohibited power bank, with the commission holding the airline responsible despite passengers' awareness of the rules.
