Damage to laptop due to faulty power supply in AC 3 Tier Travel
Dear Sir
I recently travelled from Chennai Central to Mangalore Central on 10 Jan 11 by West-Coast Express ( Train No 16627) by AC III Tier.
I plugged in my Sony VIAO laptop for charging at the 110 V AC point provided near my seat. Within minutes my charger stopped functioning.
Upon reaching Mangalore I got the charger examined and it was confirmed that it was damaged due to faulty power supply. I have now had to replace my charger in Udupi, something that has costed me Rs 5500.
I request you to reimburse the cost I have incurred in replacing my charger (Rs 5500). I would also request you to regularly check the power supply provided in trains to avoid these kind of instances again.
Regards
Sarvapriya
