  1. No action has been taken on my request for deactivating duplicate PAN Card ######### from aadhar.
    I have surrendered my duplicate PAN on 5 months before but still no action has taken. Im continuously visiting office twice in every month but they keep on saying they are all busy with their activities.
    Are we not working professionals or don’t we have any work. I have met public relational officer and explained my difficulties politely and she simply said they have other priority works.
    If they are busy with their activities then where can I get a solution for my issue. Can anyone pls suggest.
    My letter was handed over in person to The Officer, Chennai Branch.
