Is this the e-mail where you request them to send back passport even without stamping?

No, it was for the first email that I sent. I called yesterday to request for the passports even without visa and I also emailed them the request today. No response yet.

What do you mean by "received by CiC"? Delivered at Ottawa doesn't mean received by CIC. My passport was delivered on Nov 7th but received by CiC on Nov 15th. Status update on 24th, but the visa has not been printed out yet. So don't expect three weeks from the date when your passport was delivered to Ottawa.
 
Don’t send your passport! Because you will not get it back on time!!
I called up Indian VFS helpline to ask them if I can submit my passport in any VFS office for stamping and they said that I should get an approval letter from high commission of canada in canada stating that I can submit my passport in any VFS office in India for stamping.
Is there any route to reach the High Commission Canada in Canada to get this approval letter?

I wrote them email....they took notice and replied
Jyot, what province do you live in? I wanted to check if i will receive my passport tomorrow.
 
So I have a question. If I travel to Ottawa tomorrow, is there any way I can take my passport back even without a stamp?
