Fraud In the name of Baby Show from MOTHER’S pride schools
Hi All,
Let me start the story which simply portrays the fraud happened in Mother’s Pride in the
name of Baby show.(business centre in the name of school)
One fine morning we got a sealed plamphlet from mother’s pride school inviting us, dont know
first of all from where we took our phone number and address for this fraud.my wife said
that she wants our baby to take part in the Baby Show which is going to be held in Mother’s
Pride Campus on 13th March’2011.first they asked for money to be as a registration fee to
be submitted before 13th march .which i submitted at their rajouri garden branch j9/25 their
ph numbers: 7838653107 / 7838653116.On Sunday afternoon we reached Mother’s Pride
Campus at rajouri garden to be a part of the baby show but to my sheer surprise i found a
different story altogether.
Here is the story goes…
First of all, i was shocked when i saw the kind of event it was.I had seen many baby shows in
my life so far, but this was very much different from those.firstly we waited for an hr
because they were calling by token numbers provided to the parents for each kid.firstly they
asked us to fill pre admission form and that was a compulsion, next stage we were
transferred to the principal room , principal played with our kid for 5mins and talked very
very impressive about our child.( oh my God ur child’s so active very beautiful and blah blah
isko mother’s pride mein daalo zindagi ban jayegi) but then she came to the point and then
where we felt just kidnapped (me my child n wife) principal just insisting and presurrizing us
to take the admission to the school , we said child is jus 6 months old. she said pay now n get
admission after 2yrs at nominal rates of yearly charges around 37000 and monthly
1600+200.after much arguing and deeply shocked we said we dont want to admit our child
now.There was a doctor on the venue who simply measured the weight of the babies.There
were more than 50 babies and their parents who came to the venue with a wish that their
babies will get some prizes which was mentioned in brouchers and all the advertising.Those
things were simply misleading information and fraudulent too in nature.The Mother’s Pride
authorities were busy making people fool out of this.Their only motto is to build their
customer base and advertising for their school.no water provided even to the parents and
when we asked for the prize declaration they said we will tell tommorow.tommorow never
came.we inquired at rajouri garden branch delhi and they said it’ll come after an hr..i called
after 2 hrs and they said it will come after 30 min. and after 1 hr i called up again and the
voice from other said sorry ur child’s not selected , after that i tried to call them again but
alas they didnt picked up the phone because they knew they are cheating the parents.
how come its so when the doctor was got impressed the principal got impressed and even
other parents from our child and there’s no prize 🙂 its all gimmicks and marketing stunt,
nothing was transparent.for which innocent parents suffered monetarily as well as spent the
most precious time.if not then why not the results declared at the venue itself? and why they
talked about the kids less and admission more?they dont know through this fraud they are
getting negative advertising.
Now my point of concern is why did they mislead people in such a way, on top of this, its all
about harassment of babies and their parents who managed their time and money for this so
called noble event.
It’s my urge to the Gov.Of India , as a citizen of my motherland to eradicate these sort of
corruption and fraud which is happening in public in broad daylight.
rest all the parents and even kids would have given badua’s(cursed) to the owners of the mother’s pride school.for money they are doing this wrong.
