CJ) This petition is directed against the telephone bill for Rs.795.55 ps. issued in the year 1979. The grievance was that excessive bill is issued to the petitioner without hearing. 2. We have gone through the petition and heard the learned advocate for the petitioner. We find that in the facts and circumstances and having regard to the small amount of bill, no direction is required to be issued to the respondents and the petition is to be disposed of. Even otherwise, the petition will not be maintainable as held by this Court in the case of Govindbhai Premjibhai Chovatia v. Chief General Manager, 1996(1) GLR 413. The petition, is therefore, dismissed. Rule discharged. Interim relief is vacated. ........ (vjn)
