[2025:RJ-JP:8960] HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE FOR RAJASTHAN BENCH AT JAIPUR S.B. Civil Writ Petition No. 2916/2025 Dr. Monika Maheshwari D/o Om Prakash Maheshwari, R/o B-489F, Panchsheel Nagar, Ajmer. ----Petitioner Versus
1. The Managing Director (Technical), Ajmer Vidhyut Vitran Nigam Limited, Ajmer.
2. The Assistant Engineer, (Dfs), Ajmer Vidhyut Vitran Nigam Limited, Ajmer.
3. The Vigilance Officer, Tata Power Distribution Ltd., Vaishali Nagar, Ajmer. ----Respondents For Petitioner(s) : Mr. P.K. Kasliwal For Respondent(s) :
HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE SUDESH BANSAL Order 28/02/2025
1. It has been submitted that petitioner constructed a 3BHK flat at premises of B-489F Panchsheel Nagar, Ajmer and is aggrieved by disconnection of the electric connection by the respondents.
2. Counsel for petitioner contends that 50% amount of the demand raised by respondents has been deposited by the petitioner and he is agreeable to approach before the Settlement Committee (Samjhota Samiti).
3. In the opinion of this Court, the dispute in respect of outstanding dues of electricity bills is a disputed question of facts, which require evidence of parties for adjudication.
4. It is not in dispute that petitioner has an alternative remedy to approach before the Civil Court to ventilate his grievance, which is proper Court to appreciate and adjudicate the dispute and pass appropriate order. Invocation of writ jurisdiction of the High Court under Article 226 of the Constitution of India, in such nature of dispute is wholly improper and uncalled for.
[2025:RJ-JP:8960] (2 of 2) [CW-2916/2025]
5. In view of above, this Court is not inclined to entertain the writ petition on merits, however, relegates the petitioner to avail the alternative remedy before the Civil Court.
6. Stay application and any other pending application, if any, stand disposed of.
