Very bad experiences from the mission
Hai Guys Please note that,SouthAfrican goverment representing itself in India to assist the Indian citizens for travelling to SouthAfrica for visiting and employment purposes as well as SouthAfrican nationals for their travelling and civic related issues,Thats a SouthAfrican consulate.But nowdays the officials at the SouthAfrican consulates reception and behind act as "DO NOT COME TO SOUTHAFRICA". They dont speak to you directly that dont come to our country;They will ask you such documentation/information thats never written or indicated in the Southafrican immigration law and its regulations.They will hold your applications for a tourist visa untill your air tickets and hotel booking expired,they will hold your CSV application untill the employer appoint a SouthAfrican national.They dont want to listen to your problems and feelings.Southafrican consulate Mumbai keep their own laws and regulations differ than other SouthAfrican consulate or missions in the world.So i request to those guys who faced the same experience in past or still facing must take and report this matter with strong evidence to the Honourable foreign minister of SouthAfrica and the Chief director of consular service SouthAfrica.The contacts are available at the Goverment web site.The complaint must be genuine and must have enough proof to submitt with the complaint .The current consular teem in Mumbai must change their attitude,behaviour and the way they behave to Indian citizens OR the SouthAfrican goverment should replace the teem and appoint new officials those who respect Indian citizens.If its not happened we will take this matter to the Honourable Supreme court of INDIA for a decision.Thank you.
