I recently faced this incident where a heavy (45kg) dumbell broke while i was using that dumbell, luckily i did not have any major injury, the intensity of such an accident could have been fatal.
The gym management rather than apologising for this incident, started threatening me and asking me to pay for the broken dumbell.
First, the management sent their executive to ask for money,
Second, they started calling me multiple times,
Third, they sent me a warning email mentioning their membership clause with my signature on it stating- 1. members shall be held liable for any damage to equipment or property caused by any act of negligence by him. 2. the management shall have absolute discretion and restricted power to terminate cancel and expel the membership of any person for any sufficient reason without refund or any prior notice.
What legal action can we take on a Gym/Fitness Centre on such a case?
(Note:- This is one of the most premium/expensive gym in New Delhi)
