As per agreement they outsource voice and non-voice process for my BPO also they take charges of our voice project.End of feb they start their joint operation on my floor, Malda,west Bengal,India.
2 nd week of march ‘08 with out prior notice and with out any cause they with drawn their voice agent as well withdrawn their voice process,but after withdrawn the voice process still they are continue their huge non-voice process on my floor. After 2 and half month of work and as per norms when we several time request drukonnet for clear our dues which is around 21 lakhs , they keep silence and still no payment from their end. Asper agreement we are not sign for business for voice and non-voice except Drukonnet.. So at that moment no work in my hand and last three months all bill are due,At that situation i am toatal out of fund….total insolvent position………..huge pressure from all due holder……..Even now i am unable to arrange daily food for my 2 year child ,my wife and my death bed mother.
So at that situation either recover bill ASAP or end my life with my help less family member,for only i req all of u for advise.
I just can’t imagine how grateful our beloved kings are to our people…their timeless efforts and perseverance has really paid to our Bhutanese people’s life. I love all of my 5 kings and their visionary leadership. So in this web, i want to pay my tribute and respect to all my benevolent kings and their royal family of Bhutan..
