Take legal action against an agent in RTO


01-Oct-2023 (In Criminal Law)
I went to my nearest RTO to clear the LL test. I could not be aware of an agent in RTO. An agent asked me for the reason for coming. Then I said information about my LL test slot. Then he takes my document and fill a form and take my signature and charge 4700 rupees for LL. I was surprised and at that time I had not enough cash to pay the amount but I pay online to a shop and the shop arranged money to pay the amount. But after a month I realised that the agent cheated on me because of no response in communication how to get refund from the agent?

I will Or any advocate shall charge you far in excess of the amount that this lis if initiated would involve ergo it is advisable not to pursue the matter any further. but in case you find your ego and conviction compelling then as a first step in the sequel is to lodge a police complaint of the whole incident. if you know the agent in personal capacity then it would not be out of place to send him a legal notice. wish you all luck.

if he has not done the work for which he taken money from you then it can be considered that he has cheated you. If he has cheated you you can file compliant or fir againts him under section 420IPC and also you may file money recovery suit for recovery the money but before filing fir or recovery suit you may send a legal notice to the agent due to which the againt may return your money willfully.
