Harassment by South African Embassy
I have applied for Visa on 11/03/2014. Until now no sign. I was suppose to travel to Dubai also but since my passport is with them I have to cancel my flight and was unable to attend an important meeting.
When travel dates are clearly mentioned on covering letter they should straight away inform us whether they can give Visa before that or not.
Is there anyone whom we can contact and escalate the matter.

Lets inform the Media
I think anyone who has access to any new channels should try to inform them about the poor work ethics and unacceptable delays of this consulate resulting in people loosing substantial money and precious time. If any news channel carries this story it might help expedite things. Ministry of External Affairs should take note of the situation and intervene to stop Indian citizens being harrased in thier own country.

Complaint
If the Embassy is taking too long to issue the visa and my trip gets cancelled because of late issue or if i loose money because of waiting for the visa or any kind of problem faced by the citizen of India.

where should i lodge a legal complaint? or how to put a law suit against the embassy for wasting my time?

Is there any board in India monitoring all this?

Please Update
I understand there are lot of problems in getting visa, but would request people to update thier comments as to if they eventually did get thier visa just in time to make the journey. this will help others decide if one should plan a trip to SA or not.
thanks
