In Associated Road Carriers Ltd. Vs. Kamlender Kashyap and Ors., I (2008) CPJ 404 (NC), it was held by the National Commission, that a clause of Jurisdiction, by way of an Agreement, between the parties, could not be made applicable, to the consumer complaints, filed before the Consumer Foras. It was further held, in the said case, that there is a difference between Section 11 of the Act, which is para materia to Section 17 of the Act and the provisions of Sections 15 to 20 of the Civil Procedure Code, regarding the place of Jurisdiction. Otherwise also, in the instant case, the Agreement, was executed between the parties, at Chandigarh, as is evident from page 15 of the file. As such, a part of cause of action, accrued to the complainant, at Chandigarh. Accordingly, this Commission at Chandigarh, in view of the provisions of Section 17 of the Act, has territorial Jurisdiction to entertain and decide the complaint. The submission of Counsel for the opposite parties, in this regard, therefore, being devoid of merit, must fail and the same stands rejected.
