THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE C.V.NAGARJUNA REDDY WRIT PETITION No.9504 of 2011 Dated 08th April, 2011 Between: B.S.Mahaboob Valli …Petitioner And The Assistant Account Officer, APCPDCL, Yerraguntla Mandal, Kadapa District and others …Respondents Counsel for the petitioner: Sri V.Sunil Babu Counsel for the respondents: Sri O.Manohar Reddy The Court made the following: ORDER: This writ petition is filed for a mandamus to set aside notice in Lr.No.AAO/ERO/YTL/BS-NS/D.No.24/2011, dated 20.01.2011, of respondent No.1. By the impugned notice, respondent No.1 has demanded a sum of Rs.1,02,364/- towards outstanding arrears of electricity charges. The petitioner has questioned this demand on various grounds. In my opinion, as the petitioner has effective alternative remedies of approaching the Consumer Grievances Redressal Forum and also Vidyut Ombudsman constituted by the A.P.Electricity Regulatory Commission under Section 42 of the Electricity Act, 2003, I do not find any reason for the petitioner to approach this Court without availing these efficacious remedies. Accordingly, while declining to entertain this writ petition, the petitioner is permitted to avail those remedies. In order to enable the petitioner to avail such remedies, the respondents are directed not to disconnect the power supply for a period of four weeks. Subject to the above, the writ petition is dismissed. As a sequel to dismissal of the writ petition, W.P.M.P.No.11761 of 2011 filed by the petitioner for interim relief is disposed of as infructuous.
