Sonam (44), a resident of Kavi Nagar in Ghaziabad, had went to the weight loss centre 12 years ago but when she did not lose weight, she filed a complaint before the consumer forum.

After 12 years of litigation, forum chairman AK Srivastav passed the order against Dr Bina Jain, who ran the centre.
