NAME DELETION IN RATION CARD
I'm trying to share my horrifying experience I had gone through one of the popular Driving School situated in Banashankari 3rd Stage, Ring road, Bangalore. My kind advice is not chose this driving school unless you have lot of money to pay bribe for anything and everything.
Few things I have observed in this driving school:
1) It’s a standard practice to conduct 10hrs (20 days) of driving session. But this school teaches you only 6hrs of driving and 15minutes of theory session. But for the records they take your signature for all the 20 classes to show the government authorities that he is conducting the classes correctly.
2) Even to get the basic driving lessons from the teacher we have to pay him some Rs. 100/- otherwise he ********** not either co-operate well with you or you ********** lose few important lessons.
3) Soon after having 2 to 3 hrs of driving classes the school insists on appearing for the driving test, of course after paying the full fee. The logic behind this is: if you manage to pass the test you lose interest in taking more classes. That way the driving school will gain in terms saving the fuel cost and the teacher cost. Ultimately you are the loser again. Need not mention how risky it is to drive the car without having proper training. I advice people to take all the classes and then appear for the test.
4) They take Rs.300/- towards fee for smart card (driving license) without providing you the receipts. I’m not sure of what is the actual fee. I believe it is less than Rs. 300/-. Despite insisting for receipts they didn’t provide any.
5) When you pass the driving test at the RTO, the driving school will ask you to submit a self addressed envelope with a stamp that costs Rs. 60/- altogether. But the actual cost of envelope is no more than Rs. 2 and stamp costs Rs. 25/-.
6) Though the driving license will be issued normally within 1 week, the license ********** not reach you. If you panic and give a call to the driving school, the person will say that he will check with RTO. After few days the school would say the driving license is returned back because of wrong mailing address or no one collected it. He would say he has done favour to by collecting it from RTO officer by paying Rs.100/- bribe. He would ask you to collect it from him after paying Rs. 100/-. I insisted him to show the proof of undelivered post. The returned post envelop would have 2 seal on the envelop if it has actually undelievered. It is very unlikely it will be returned back because I had written phone number as well as correct postal address. I have never missed any postal delivery to my residence in the past.
I denied paying Rs.100/- to owner of driving school. He started using foul language back on me when I asked for the explanation for the above points. At one point he was ready to physically assault me. Since we are not suppose to reveal any specific names in this ********** I’m haven’t mentioned any.
