2018 PLD 26 PESHAWAR-HIGH-COURT Judicial Precedent
Ss. 12 & 17Electricity Act (IX of 1910), S.54-CDisputed Electricity billBar to jurisdiction of courtsScope

Complainant did not default in paying any monthly electricity bill but he had disputed incorrect reading recorded in the bill

Plea raised by authorities was that jurisdiction of Consumer Court was barred-Validity

Disputed electricity bill did not commensurate with actual electricity consumed by complainant

Such discrepancy was proved from documentary evidence produced during trial

Consumer Court though was actually bound to determine subject matter of complaint in summary manner but still a complete opportunity of hearing was given to both parties to settle their controversy one for all

High Court declined to interfere in the matter as Consumer Court had rightly allowed complaint by giving sound reasons after considering each and every aspect of the matter

Appeal against order was dismissed in circumstances.
