This question has already been considered and decided by a
Division Bench of the Delhi High Court in Suresh Jindal v.
BSES Rajdhani Power Ltd. [(2006) 132 DLT 339 (DB)] and
Dheeraj Singh v. BSES Yamuna Power Ltd. [Ed. : (2006)
127 DLT 525 (DB)] and we approve of these decisions. It
has been held in these decisions that the forum and
ombudsman have power to grant interim orders. Thus a
complete machinery has been provided in Sections 42(5) and
42(6) for redressal of grievances of individual consumers.
Hence wherever a forum/ombudsman have been created the
consumers can only resort to these bodies for redressal of
their grievances. Therefore, not much is required to be
discussed on this issue. As the aforesaid two decisions
correctly lay down the law when an individual consumer has
a grievance he can approach the forum created under sub-
section (5) of Section 42 of the Act.
Mr. Dheeraj Singh vs Bses Yamuna Power Limited on 18 November, 2005
While affirming the decision passed by this Court in
Suresh Jindal v. BSES Rajdhani Power Ltd. & Ors. and
Dheeraj Singh v. BSES Yamuna Power Ltd., wherein, it was
held that the CGRF and the Ombudsman has the authority to
pass an interim order as well, the Supreme Court further held
that Sections 42(5) and 42(6) provide a complete machinery for
redressal of grievances of the consumers. The Supreme Court in
the said case remitted the matter back to the CGRF for
adjudication on merits.

Anand v. Chairman Delhi Electricity Regulatory Commission

the similar position of law as has been rendered in the case of
Ram Kishan (supra).
