Consumer Commission Orders Refund Over Unfulfilled Luxury Holiday Package
A Punjab consumer commission ordered a travel agency to refund Rs 1.2 lakh plus Rs 10,000 compensation to a woman after it failed to provide the promised five-star hotel accommodation under a prepaid holiday package. The woman had purchased a five-year membership for Rs 1.2 lakh, which guaranteed annual stays at luxury hotels from a specified list. The commission found the agency's failure to meet these terms constituted a deficiency in service and ruled in favor of the complainant.
