I applied for passport on 3-4-2007 through Gwalior speed post passport center . But till date there has been "EVEN NO INQUIRY". When inquired in the regional passport cell they say they didn't receive any application for inquiry from bhopal and they cant do anything . The online status shows "POLICE REPORT NOT RECEIVED FILE IS UNDER FURTHER REVIEW" i used all the mediums available other than personal contact fax,e-mail,speed post to try to present my problem but no reply from the BHOPAL office side.
It has been more or less like a myth to me . My application number is BPLW23001807 . I would be delighted if anyone can give me advice regarding my further course of action.

We applied for a passport for my sister (Ms. Jyoti Chawla) around a year back. i.e. on 21st September 2006 in Ghaziabad passport office.
But still we haven't received the passport.
Neither any police check happened nor we have any clue about it.

We have already logged several number of grievances, but all in vain.

My brother sunil kumar and his wife applied for their passports in feb. 20006. When I'm checking their status on line has been showing that police report being examined. My brother's fee for immigrant visa will expire soon. His work in india has been transferring every 5to 6 months. That's why he gave his permanent address vpo ruhasa address. Someone from the village told the police that sunil doesn't live there. Permanent address for all family is in the village. That is the correct address. He is working away from home doesn't mean that's not his residence. His passport number is A003922 and A003920.

My name is Ram Niwas Prasad S/O Shri Madhusudan Prasad Singh Resident of SEC: 2A/41, Flat No: G-2, Vaishali, Ghaziabad - Utterpradesh applied for New Passport vide my application Number A006868 dt : 26/4/2007.

After depositing the application once verification made From SSP OFFICE Ghaziabad MR ANAND SHARMA on dated 13/5/2007 and he called me to personally visit at SSP Office Ghaziabad and I visited there and Meet with Ms Rajkumari who was taking caring my file that time on dated 14/5/2007, thereafter again verification made by Indirapuram police incharge 27th may '2007, but when I was checked the status of my passport on website I have seen still showing police verification is pending. I am really surprised to see after more than one month of police verification, still police verification report not submitted. Hence I decide to write in this box. I had written to RPO Ghaziabad also for action but nobody taking pain for my problem. I attached our correspondence also with Rpo.

My passport was issued by Bareilly Passport office but due to some reasons the passport was not delivered at the address mentioned in the passport form.

So, on my email request the Bareilly passport office had sent my passport to Ghaziabad passport office and informed me by sending a letter at my present address (Mangalore address).

According to the information provided in the letter, I had to take my passport from the Ghaziabad office but When I went there the clerk misguided me. Finally the passport officer informed me that they will dispatch it to my Mangalore Address...

But now it has been more than 6 months and I haven’t got it.. :-(

Last two month ago when I checked it on the site I found that these passport will be dispatched after 21st of april. But now due to some unavoidable problem the exact date of dispatched is not mentioned here. So I want the correct information of passport delivery as per my fast requirement of these during coming days. But i am not getting any response after mailing at the given milling add. (jscpv@mea.gov.in). I am not satisfied to this service.

Re: Regional Passport Office, Ghaziabad

Subject: “Delay of damaged passport”

This is H V Sridhara swamy (full name is “Hosur Veerabhadraiah Sridhara swamy”) Passport no B2947843 from penang, Malaysia an Indian working in Malaysia as contract Engineer. I had applied for damaged in High Commission of India Kuala lumpur Malaysia on 15th of may 2007, File no. KUA/CON/402/2/59/07

My problem is that my visa is going to expire within this week so I need my passport to extend my contract or to to go back to India very soon. When I called High Commission India Kuala lumpur Malaysia, they said that we sent for inquiry to Bangalore passport office and waiting for the reply. My father had gone to passport office Bangalore and checked with passport officer,they said that they are not replying to any this kind of issues because High Commissioner of India have internal link to check all these things.

When I called High commission of India Kuala Lumpur they said that we are trying to send fax but its not going,then I got Bangalore passport office fax no. & gave to High Commission if India, Kuala Lumpur to fax inquiry letter. I checked in Bangalore passport office they said that they not received any fax from High commission of India Kuala Lumpur.

High Commissioner of India, Kuala lumpur Malaysia should know how to get all these records and why I should check in Bangalore passport office to send reaply to their letter.If they not receive any reply from Bangalore passport office they can take necessary action on the person who is not sending reports to their letter.

When I was submitting my application for new passport High commission of India took one month time to issue new passport but It has been twenty days since and I still haven't received any status of my passport. I am still waiting for it. My problem is that I took two times special pass because of my passport issue so I can’t get any special pass next time because Immigration of penang, Malaysia gave me two months time to get my passport. My special pass duration is going to finish. I can’t get any special pass or can’t go back to India also, nobody understanding my problem, instead of solving my problem creating problem and simple wasting time. Its really very bad communication between High Commissioner of India, Kuala lumpur Malaysia and passport office Bangalore.

Kindly I am requesting to High Commissioner of India, Kuala lumpur Malaysia & passport officer Bangalore to look over this and do the needful, if I can’t get my passport within this week I have to go to jail. Please do the needful.

Thanks & Regards,
H V Sridhara swamy.

I am also facing the same problem in Pune, where I gave my Passport to increase the validity. My original passport was from Bhopal, I don't understand what goes wrong that they take hell lot of time to send a passport but they have enough time to update the website saying "we regret ...blah blah..."

I am visiting the PRO tomorrow and will make him so annoyed, that he have no options left with me, in case he try out some hopeless answers to my questions!

Now i think you will find that you are not the only one in our mahan INDIA.

...Having this prob...

My wife had applied for the passport in 14th Nov 06 via application no F015965, all the formalities has been completed in dec 06 , but this is now March 07, she has not received the passport till yet.

The passport web site tells "It is to regret that due to unavoidable circumstances the dispatch of Passport has been delayed and will now be dispatched in a week's time " from last 4 months, i doubt there week is 4 months or more than this.
