An Insurance company changes the form originally filled.
22-Jun-2023 (In Criminal Law)
An Insurance company changes the form originally filled by me, which I discover when I ask for a copy of the original form filled by me through email.The data originally filled are replaced (by a different handwriting).This they do probably because the underwriter rejected the form because of a disease mentioned there in, which would have meant they would have lost their commission.
Probably they never thought that I would one day ask for a copy.
Now I want to file a criminal case and seek damages.
Hello I have perused your query.
In these circumstances you have an option to file both a civil suit for recovery in a competent court of civil jurisdiction and a criminal suit of cheating by virtue of filing a private complaint before the magistrate.
You also have an option to sue them in a consumer forum.
However, will be better to advise you if you could share more details regarding the same .
For any further information feel free to reach out to us.

Hi
In addition to filling a criminal complaint. You can also consider filing a consumer complaint with the. District consumer forum/State Commision depending upon your claim amount.
I had similar Cases where insurance companies are acting fraudulently.
In addition to all this, you can also consider filing a complaint with the I r d a I which is the regulatory body for all insurance companies, and in case the insurance company is a p s u, you can also file a petition if your complaint is not addressed properly.
Rest, I will be able to advice only if I see the relevant papers pertaining to your case.
