I heard learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Standing Counsel for the Corporation. Learned Standing Counsel points out that the petitioner has a remedy of approaching the Consumer Grievance Redressal Forum, Kozhikode. 3. I feel that, in such circumstances, the petitioner can be relegated to pursue the remedy before the Consumer Grievance Redressal Forum. Accordingly, the writ petition is disposed of as follows: If the petitioner prefers a petition before the Consumer Grievance Redressal Forum, Kozhikode within a period of three weeks from today, the CGRF, Kozhikode will consider and take a decision thereon in accordance with law after affording an opportunity of hearing to the petitioner within a period of three months from the date of receipt of the petition. If the petitioner pays regular bills and also pays 20% of the amount demanded, the proceedings will be kept in abeyance till a decision is taken by the CGRF. Petitioner will produce a copy of this judgment along with the petition before CGRF, Kozhikode. (K.M. JOSEPH, JUDGE) sb
