Consumer forum orders refund after Covid-19 disrupts travel plans
In a classic case of vacation plans gone viral, the Ghaziabad Consumer Forum has ruled in favor of Ishan Pratap Singh, a traveler who was forced to cancel a family trip to the Maldives in 2021 after testing positive for Covid-19—just a day before departure, reported TOI. Singh had booked the dream getaway from Mumbai through Ineedtrip , a Ghaziabad-based travel agency, coughing up a hefty Rs 1.9 lakh as an advance (and even taking a Rs 1.4 lakh loan to fund it). But when he tested positive via an RT-PCR on March 12, he requested the agency to reschedule the trip originally planned for March 13–17, as per the TOI report. Though he tried to shuffle the dates—first aiming for May, then April, and finally November 2021—he was met with repeated refusals. The agency cited expiry of certain travel packages and warned of forfeiture by the partner hotel after September. Despite these pandemic-related hurdles and Singh's continued EMI payments for the loan, Ineedtrip refused to refund the money. They also skipped responding to the consumer forum's notices. Unimpressed, forum members Praveen Kumar Jain and RP Singh passed an ex parte order, declaring Ineedtrip's actions a clear 'deficiency in service' under the Consumer Protection Act. Live Events Now, the travel agency must refund the Rs 1.9 lakh within 45 days, plus 6% interest from the date of the order until the amount is paid. To top it off, they've been ordered to shell out Rs 5,000 more for Singh's legal costs and mental agony. Economic Times WhatsApp channel )

Bansal Wire becomes first local firm to roll out tyre cords
Dadri, Ghaziabad-based Bansal Wire Industries, the largest stainless steel wire manufacturer in the country, has entered the tyre cords segment. With this, Bansal has become the first domestic firm to enter this high-end wire segment, which was so far served only by the Belgian firm Bekaert with its Pune plants since 1998. Bansal, which went public last July with a Rs 750-crore public issue, is the second largest wire-maker in the country with 6% market share after Tata Wires which controls 7% of the industry. Bansal's tyre cords entry will considerably reduce the domestic tyremakers' heavy dependence on imports for this critical safety element in tyres, Bansal Wire chief executive Pranav Bansal told TNIE. Bansal has also opened a new plant in Dadri, thus more than doubling wire capacity to 6 lakh tonne per annum. It serves over 5,000 customers from a range of sectors such as automotives, general engineering, infrastructure, hardware, consumer durables, power generation & transmission, agriculture and auto replacement, offering over 3,000 stock keeping units in 0.04 mm-15.65 mm sizes.

Over 5K illegal abortion kits seized in Haryana
Chandigarh: In a major catch, the Kaithal unit of the special task force deployed to control illegal medical termination of pregnancy (MTP) seized 5,000 illegal kits from the possession of a medical representative in Kaithal on Tuesday morning. With this, the STF teams have seized a total of 5,805 MTP kits since April 20. The catch is part of a two-day special drive carried out by different units across Haryana in association with teams of the Haryana State Narcotics Control Bureau (HSNCB). The operation was monitored by ACS (health) Sudhir Rajpal, along with NHM director Virender Yadav and state drug controller Manmohan Taneja. Field monitoring was done by consultant G L Singhal, the former SDC who was associated with the B3P campaign. According to information, acting on a tip-off, the team swooped down on the residence of the medical representative and seized the stocks. During questioning, he could not justify the presence of the stocks and his consumers. The seized stock is believed to have a market worth of Rs 25 lakh. Preliminary investigation revealed that the kits were manufactured in Haridwar and were marketed by a Ghaziabad-based company. The raiding party handed over the medical representative, as well as the stocks, to Kaithal police, which started an investigation after registering a case. A health department team also carried out operations in Hisar and Sonipat districts. In related development, another team laid a trap for Sunil Kumar, a resident of Patel Nagar, A decoy struck a deal for Rs 4,100 for the supply of 25 MTP kits.

A third trap was laid at a hospital in Kharkhoda, Sonipat, on Monday, wherein a decoy was sent for illegal MTP by the team of the drug control office as well as the PNDT team. As the woman decoy signalled, the raiding party swooped down on the premises and apprehended the operators. A case has been registered. It may be recalled that for the past two months, Haryana health authorities have constituted an STF to ensure an increase in the sex ratio at birth by intensifying the drives against illegal MTPs in violation of the PNDT Act.
