Consumer panel dismisses Dadar duo’s chicken momos complaint: invoice tells the story

A consumer commission has dismissed a complaint filed by two residents of Dadar, Joshi and Mundhwa, who alleged they were served chicken momos at Wow Momos despite ordering vegetarian options.

The commission scrutinized the case and highlighted that the invoice clearly indicated a non-vegetarian order, contradicting the complainants' claims. It also questioned the decision to dine at a restaurant known for serving non-vegetarian dishes.

"The invoice indicated a non-vegetarian order," the commission noted, emphasizing the importance of verifying orders through official documentation.

Furthermore, the commission found no evidence supporting the claim that the consumption of meat disrupted any planned religious ceremonies or pujas by the complainants.

"No evidence was found that Joshi and Mundhwa's plan to perform puja or religious ceremonies was thwarted by the consumption of meat," the ruling stated.

The restaurant company also responded, stating that the complainants had suppressed facts and had themselves ordered non-vegetarian items, as confirmed by the invoice.

This ruling underscores the significance of clear evidence in consumer disputes and highlights the role of official receipts in resolving such conflicts.
