Legal Question in Consumer Law in India

A suit was filed on the postal department for three income tax letters lost as some staff at post office was in connivance with my father in law.

I communicated through letters and faxes with postal department but they did not respond and kept delaying the compensation so I filed my suit in the consumer court against Postal Department (GOVERNMENT).

My queries are :

1. Is it compulsary to send notice u/s 8o of the civil procedure court, 1908 to Post Office?

2. I have not sent any notice to postal department. What is the downside for not sending the notice in the eyes of consumer court and how I can cover it up as I am going to file the rejoinder.

What would be my best reply to the below Written Statement of postal departmental content

A) That no notice u/s 80 of the civil procedure court, 1908 was given by the complainant before filing the complaint to this Hon'ble consumer forum.

B) That the complaint filed by the complainant is false and frivolous and therefore liable for outright rejection with cost in terms of section 26 of consumer protection act 1986.

Please write your comments against each pointer 1 and 2 A and 2B.

Best Regards
