Petrol pump told to shell out ₹10,000 for harassing transporter

CHANDIGARH: The District Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission-2 has directed a petrol pump in Hallomajra to pay ₹10,000 in compensation to a truck driver for causing harassment while collecting payment for fuel in November 2021.

The petrol pump in question is managed by the Chandigarh Industrial and Tourism Development Corporation Limited (CITCO).

The complainant, Vinod Kumar of Zirakpur, took the CITCO managing director and the petrol pump manager to court, submitting that he ran a transportation business and held an "XtraPower Fleet Card" for fuel payments, issued by the Indian Oil Corporation Ltd (IOCL).

On November 27, 2021, he received an order to deliver goods from Lalru, Punjab, to Maharashtra within a tight deadline of 36 hours.

His trucks, carrying the goods, stopped at the Hallomajra petrol pump for diesel around 9.47 pm.

After confirmation from the attendant that they accepted the XtraPower Fleet Card, which had ₹50,000 loaded, the trucks were refuelled with 540 litres of diesel worth ₹43,904.
