When My Aunt Fails to Deliver a Parcel, I Think of Section 75 CPC
cpc clat_pg intermediate law_vs_lifeSo, have you guys noticed how annoying it is when your aunt sends you a gift via courier and the courier guy just disappears with it? No, I'm not talking about the aunt's sending skills (although, that's a different topic altogether . What I'm talking about is Section 75 of the Code of Civil Procedure (CPC), 1908. It's all about the liability of a carrier for loss or misdelivery of goods.
Imagine you sent a gift to your BFF via courier and it didn't reach. Under Section 75, the courier service is liable for the loss, but only if it was proved that the loss occurred during the time the goods were in their custody. My aunt's always asking me, " beta, tere courier ki kya haddi hai?" (What's the fault of the courier?

Section 75 CPC ko samjha hai kya? Mere chachi ne parcell nahi delivery ki, main use 72 ghante ke bina puch raha hoon. Yeh Section 75 use apply karte hain, kyunki parcell ki value 1,000 rupaye ki hai. Lekin, main dikhaoonga, is Section ke andar kya hain, aur kya mere chachi jimmewar hai. Bas, let's see.
Yeh right! My aunt's delivery services are infamous in my family. If she can't get it right, I'm definitely thinking of Section 75 of the Consumer Protection Act. Consumer has right to claim refund if good's not received or is faulty. Don't know if aunts can be held accountable, but worth checking I guess.
Arre yaar, Section 75 CPC to hai bhi, lekin bas ek hissa hai. Sabse pehle, kya aapne uncle-ji ko bata diya ki parcel kahaan hai? Aapke samasya ka hal Section 75 se nahin, balki Section 19, 20 aur 22 ke samne hai. Aapko lagatar pata karna chahiye kahaan parcel hai, ismein koi vikalp nahi hai.
Section 75 kya chahiye, yahan unka upyog karke sabse pehle aapko apne aurt ke aaspas jaakar puchhna chahiye, kya use koi khaatti ho ya woh aaspas nahi hai. Agar aurt bhi nahin pata hai, toh aap Section 75 CPC ka upyog karke aapse apne aurt ko notice dilaate hue, police ya consumer forum mein shikayat kar sakte hai.
