Jalandhar, July 20
The functioning of a Chandigarh-based immigration consultancy -World Wide Immigration Consultancy Services (WWICS)- has come under a scanner with cheating allegations levelled by a Kangra-based girl against its officials.
Prachi Chaudhary, a resident of Tharu village in Nagrota Bagwan town of Kangra district, has alleged that the company’s employees at its Jalandhar-based office cheated and betrayed her on the pretext of sending her to Sheridan College Institute of Technology and Advanced Learning, Canada to pursue a course in emergency management.
She alleged that the consultancy charged Rs 20,000 from her and issued an offer letter for admission. Interestingly, she was later denied her admission claiming that because she could not qualify the entrance test her papers were rejected by the institute, but the company failed to show documents proving she had been rejected, alleged Prachi’s father, Satish Chaudhary.
Chaudhry also alleged that Vandana Bedi, who looks after students’ VISA section of the WWICS’s Jalandhar office, demanded Rs 10,000 claiming that the company had not received an equal amount in its account. The amount was deposited in her account (008201545379) in the ICICI Bank on April 8, 2011, he claimed.
When he was contacted, Pankaj Sahi Assistant Branch Manager of the WWICS, Jalandhar, claimed that he was taking up the matter with his superiors at Chandigarh personally and the issue would be sorted out soon.
