The grievance of the appellant is that the newly erected pole by shifting creates inconvenience to the appellant for the free movement of vehicles from the Highway to the property of the appellant.

The appellant is a consumer of Electrical Section, Thrikkodithanam with consumer number 1146401010590 under LT IA domestic tariff having a connected load of 14885 watts. The bimonthly meter reading in the premises was taken on 22-06-2019 and for further bi-months 08/2019, 10/2019, 12/2019 & 02/2020 readings were not available, the reason said to be “Gate was locked” as per respondent. As such bills for the above months were issued based on the previous month’s average consumption. In 04/2020 also, the reading could not be taken by the respondent due to the restriction imposed in the “Lockdown” period and hence, issued the bill on average basis. After taking meter reading on 23-06-2020, the respondent issued a bill for Rs.1,00,750/- deducting the amount remitted by the appellant. Against the above, the appellant filed a petition before Consumer Grievance Redressal Forum(CGRF), Southern Region, Kottarakkara vide OP No.57/2020 and the Forum in its order dated 21-12-2020 dismissed the petition allowing instalment facility to remit the amount. Aggrieved by the order of CGRF, the appellant filed the appeal petition before this Authority. The appellant’s plea to quash the bill is rejected by this Authority and upheld the decision taken by the CGRF, Southern Region in OP No.57/2020 dated 21.12.2020 and issued order accordingly. Not satisfied with the order of this Authority in Appeal Petition P-010/2021 dated 12-07-2021, the review appellant filed Review Petition vide R.P/002/2021. In the review petition nothing is pointed out which escaped from the notice of this Authority while disposing the appeal petition. The review jurisdiction is limited to rectify a mistake or an error which is apparent on the face of records. This Authority has considered all the arguments while disposing the Appeal Petition. In this background, this Authority did not find any reason to intervene the order already issued. In view of the above discussions, the review petition is not maintainable and hence, dismissed. |
