The Hon’ble High Court, vide impugned judgment dated 15-7-2015, ordered the appellant to approach the CGRF and also held that not to disconnect the supply pending final orders of the CGRF. Accordingly the appellant filed a petition before the CGRF which was disposed vide Order No. 61/2015 dated 21-11-2015, with a finding that the demand raised by the respondent is correct and the appellant is bound to pay the same. Challenging the decision of the CGRF, the appellant approached this Authority by filing this appeal petition.
