Indian Consulate SFO+UPS+Police Verification
in 2010 , i renewed my passport from SFO Embassy and it was much easy process then. i have been in US 14 Years and last time i visited India was 2007.

i first submitted my passport for renewal on Oct 7 ,2020.but due to incorrect information it was returned to me on 9 Oct 2020. Still waiting for refund from CKGS. Any email i send to CKGS has delivery failure.

I again submitted by passport for renewal on oct 13, 2020.On 19 oct 2020 my passport was with Embassy. On 30 Oct2020 my passport went for police verification.

got a call thru whats app for police verification from a constable. i told them i am outside india from past 14 years.Constable said, oh then you have to come to India, so that i can verify.also he suggested to bring "Original" passport when i visit police station.i said original is with embassy. then he said in that case bring PAN Card, US Residence proof.I said i left India before PAN card was introduced.he suggested to come see him in person.i said i cannot come i will send someone who live in my home. When the person reached there, he asked for "chai paani" .Feed Rs500 in constable mouth.he approved the file and within 4 hours i got email from CKGS that passport is dispatched on 6 nov 2020

UPS Rant: UPS Tracking status says exception occurred and it is stuck.i called UPS and as per UPS the shipment is lost. Investigation is in progress.
i had my old passport and new renewed passport in the package which i think is almost lost.
