RP-004-2021 - AXE, ESD, Shivapuram-Order 02-02-2022
The grievance of the appellant is that the respondent issued an exorbitant bill amounting to Rs. 23,119/- on 28-9-2017 for a bimonthly consumption of 2811 units. The appellant filed a petition before the CGRF, Kozhikode with a request to grant 12 equal monthly instalments and the Forum disposed of the petition allowing the petition. The appellant had filed an appeal petition before this Authority with a request to waive the bill amount of Rs. 23,119/-. The appellant was directed to prefer a petition describing his grievances before CGRF by complying with the formalities for filing petition, if he desires so and the CGRF shall consider the same, vide order no. P/09/2018 dated 30-04-2018. On the basis of this order, the appellant submitted another petition before the CGRF, which was dismissed in Petition OP No. 35/2018-19 dated 31-07-2018. The appellant filed appeal petition before this Authority with a request to waive the bill amount of Rs. 23,119/-. This Authority took a decision in the Appeal No. P-074/2018 as follows: “The bill for Rs. 23,119/- is quashed. The respondent is directed to revise the bill for the period from 4-5-2017 to 28-9-2017 by taking the average of the consumption of three billing cycles after 3-11-2017 after deducting the bills already paid during the disputed period. The order of CGRF, Kozhikode vide order no. P/35/2018-19 dated 31-07-2018 is set aside. Having concluded and decided as above, it is ordered accordingly. The Appeal Petition filed by the appellant is found having merits and is allowed. No order on costs.” Against the order, the Review Petitioner submitted the review petition after 1140 days with a request to review the order dated 08-11-2018 in Appeal No. P-074/2018 and to issue a revised order. In the review petition nothing is pointed out further, which escaped from the notice of this Authority while disposing the appeal petition. This Authority had considered all the arguments while disposing the appeal petition. A decision once rendered by a Competent Authority/Court on a matter in issue between the parties after a full enquiry should not be liable to be agitated over again before the same Authority/Court. In this background, this Authority did not find any reason to intervene the order already issued. Hence, it is decided that review petition is not maintainable and hence, rejected.
