I charge it with the original Go pro charger. When charging there is a red light on the top corner of the screen but the camera wont turn on even after charging it for an hour.
Contacted the dealer who sold the camera but they want me to write to customer support of GoPro to raise a case.When i wrote to GoPro customer support they reject email with the below reply;

Yeah I guess so. Ive bee trying during their working hours for the past six days. A company like GoPro should have better service standards or alternate methods for tech support
