Diljit Dosanjh Gets Legal Notice Over Dil-Luminati Concert Ticket Sales In Delhi
A Delhi-based law student has sent the singer Diljit Dosanjh a legal notice after failing to obtain a ticket for the concert.
New Delhi: Diljit Dosanjh's Indian leg of the Dil-Luminati Tour is all set to begin on October 26, 2024 in Delhi. As Delhi fans have been eagerly waiting for the Punjabi singer's arrival, a controversy has been doing the rounds on social media, ever since the concert pre-sale tickets went live on Sep, 12. A Delhi-based law student has sent the singer a legal notice after failing to obtain a ticket for the concert.
As per a Free Press Journal report, the legal notice alleged that the organisers announced that on September 12( 1 PM), saying that the booking window would be open for fans, but the window was closed early. The passes went live at 12:59 pm, due to which several hundreds of fans booked the tickets within a minute and several remained left as the window closed, blaming the organisers.
As per the report, the law student, identified as Riddhima Kapoor, accused the organisers of the Dil-Lumaniti Tour of violating consumer rights, and alleged malpractices in the ticket sales process.
Like many, Kapoor claimed that she specifically got an HDFC Credit Card to get early-bird passes.
This abrupt and suspicious transaction strongly suggests manipulation and scalping practices. The sudden unavailability of tickets indicates that your organisation may be artificially inflating demand and manipulating prices, which constitutes an unfair trade practice under the Consumer Protection Act, 2019. The practice of scalping and hoarding of tickets with an intent to resell them at inflated prices is a clear violation of consumer rights and an act of bad faith,” the Free Press Journal quoted the notice.
Meanwhile, Delhi Police penned a creative word of caution against fraudulent sale of Diljit Dosnajh's concert tickets. Sharing a video of a concert set featuring Diljit's popular track 'Born To Shine' and penned a caption using lyrics from the song 'Paise Puse Baare Soche Duniya, Alert Rehkar Online Fraud Se Bache Duniya!'
