Why pay for maintenance?

Himanshu (Registered Owner, Resident, XX-XXXX) wrote:

Hi Kiran -

Please provide me a single reason why should I pay the maintenance for.

- Along with my family, I have been attacked by Stray Dogs in our premises multiple times.
- Milk Packets have been stolen multiple times from our gate.
- My dust bins have also stolen 3 times which placed outside my apartment.

These instances were still under the radius of my tolerance, I have complained the Security Multiple times for this lapse and as usual there has been no response from anyone.

What happened yesterday was beyond my tolerance capability. A New Pair of Brown Shoes were stolen yesterday from my residential premises in our absence. Now, before you come to me and say "How is that possible Sir ?" let me help you out. I stay in Cedar Wing, A Block, Apartment Number 1803. We have a grill main gate followed by foyer area and main door. We usually lock our grill gate when we are inside our apartment and without fail we put a lock when we are outside our apartment.

Yesterday also our apartment was locked when we were out for office. Evening when I came back I didn't find one pair of Brown Shoes which I have purchased recently.

I tried connecting with our Security Head, Mr. Jayprakash but got a very rude response saying it is not possible and if it happened we cannot control this type of activity. He provided full confidence on Cleaning Staffs and Security Guards saying they cannot do this activity. My concerns is if they cannot do that activity then is this not a Security Lapse ? Is he trying to say me that someone from outside, successfully entered into our premises and have done this task ? Is this the level of Security we are expecting we should have ?

As a solution, Mr. Jayprakash told that we will monitor for 2-3 days if someone is wearing those type of shoes, if we got we will provide you else you can forget it, it's just a small item.

Today it is indeed a small item, many of us might not be concerned much, but one thing is for sure that the person who has dared to do this can tomorrow dare to do anything. 

No CCTV Camera is fixed anywhere in CEDAR Block from where I can see the footage. We have been staying in this Apartment for more than a year and we are still waiting for the day when CCTV Camera's will be fixed in the lifts.

For reference I am attaching the pic of my apartment from where the Shoes are stolen and also the pic of my shoes.

I know it's in your hand to check the CCTV footage in the main entry/exit and you are capable of finding the thief if you intend to do so. I know as usual I may not receive any actions from your end but its my duty to request you to take some actions.

@Greenagians: Please let me know if it comes in the radius of some Legal Actions, I am ok to do so. I am less concerned about my shoes and more concerned with the thought that tomorrow the theft can be bigger.

Thanks !

Regards,
Himanshu

Dog attack - AGAIN

Thanks Sharang for raising the issue and helping us to come out of this trauma last evening .

For Others ....let me add one more incident to the never ending saga of Dog menace in our society .

Yesterday me and one of my friend went out with our 3 kids   .While we left from my parking in Cedar Upper basement , a guard was sitting in my parking slot beside my car . When we came back , while parking i found an empty car chair parked exactly in the middle of my parking slot , which my friend helped to removed so that i could park my car .after we walk around 10 steps away from my car towards the lift lobby , the nightmere began when we were surrounded by 4 dogs who started growling on us , specially on kids . we tried to move fast but as soon as we took 2-3 more steps one of them came to attack us .At that moment I could find only my shoe to rescue us .  I was able to hold the dog by scaring him for almost a minute through my shoe but then he pounced on us and that moment i flew my shoe on him , he got distrcted for 2-3 seconds which was the opportunity for us to run towards the lift lobby and save our lives , specially the kids . ( since he was growling more fiercely towards the kids ) . In just couple of minutes , the funfilled evening turned into a trauma for the kids . My 4 year daughter was in such a trauma that she was not able to take her dinner and difficulty sleeping. In the morning the kids are scared even seeing  the pet dogs . I still get goosebumps thinking how we just got away when that dog punced on us .
But the story does not end here . It was not just the dog part . Once again , this incident pointed out the Lenient security system we have in our society . I came to the reception area and told teh guard to go find teh gurad in the basement and call him upsatirs . The guard went downstairs , blowed his whistle for almost 10 minutes to search for the guard in teh basement , but there was none to find .

Me and my husband again went downstairs at 10 pm to reception area , to find that there was no gurad even at recption area for almost 15 minutes, and we could see so many vendors walking in easily into the block . When he came back we questioned him and he told that he went fr dinner and he was not provided a back up for the post during this time .And again there was no gurad in the basement . 
Our Parking basements have so easy access for everyone including the dogs , that anyone can do anything they want and get away .

With so many other incidents , this really made us thing , that was it really a good decision to invest such a huge amount in this society .
