The service was disconnected on 23-07-2015 due to non payment of electricity bill and consequently dismantled on 01-12-2015. The grievance of the appellant is that he was not issued a disconnection notice in writing, intimating about the grounds for disconnection. In addition to that, though the appellant had applied for a new service connection on 22-02-2016, the same was not processed timely and properly and delayed unnecessarily. The appellant further stated that the indecent behaviour and utterance of abusive languages from the part of the concerned officials created a lot of difficulties and mental agonies while providing new service connection. Aggrieved against the undue delay from the part of respondent, the appellant approached the CGRF praying for compensation for the delay caused and to refund the amount towards the OYEC already remitted by him.
