consumer case

dear friends,hello.i am facing some problem regarding my case in consumer forum.I filed a consumer case in distt.consumer fourm ageinst electricity dipartment.in this case the father of plentiff had apllied for an electricity connection in 1991,which was not issued till he died in 1999, and now his 2 sons are left behind and the electricity deptt.despite of the fact that there are no wires or poles whatsoever(it is a tube well connection)till date, has generated the bill w.e.f 1991.his sons presented an application to S.D.M. office complaining of the bill and connection.after the complaint the elec.deptt. isuued electricity pole and wires in '94 but it was not connected as the result the above sais equipment is still lying idle at the site of connection,but the bill is still being generated every month.aggrieved form this exercise one of the son filed a consumer complaint.an advocate commission was carried out by the forum and the complaint was found to be true.now this case is in final arguements.some days earlier state forum,lucknow,passed a ruling that consumer is the one in whose name is the connection as a result one cannot be a consumer untill he has a connection on his name. my queries are as below.
1.)as per section 2 of C.P.act the legal hiers are the consumers.so that makes the son a consumer.but,disst.forum,due to State Forum,lucknow's ruling denies that the son being a consumer.and the view of distt,fourm is also with the state fourm i.e-son is not consumer whenever he is not named on the regd.connection.
2.he left two sons behind,and the case has been filed by only one son with the consent of the other son,but the consent is not on the file.then what is the status of this complaint?
3.any amendment on this stage will make my case better? if itis possible then how (only final argument is left now )suggest me ????????????? s.k.sharma advocate

F I R( FIRST INFORMATION REPORT)

Kindly advise on all aspects of FIR viz

a. is FIR filed only in criminal cases or in all kinds of disputes?

b. Why police is always hesitent in recording FIR?

c. what should an agrieved person do if police adopts noncooperative attitude in recording FIR.Can another FIR be lodged with the higher police office or a court against the defaulting police person? Has an offence been committed by the defaulting police person in not acceeding to the request of the agrieved person?

d. is an agrieved person permitted to give a written 'first information repot'and insist that the same be recorded verbatim as the police is notorious in distorting the facts of the reporteither intentionally or due to lack of knowledge of law and language?

e. Is there a comprehensive act or official document which can explain all aspects of an FIR?If so can it be downloaded from the internet?

Thanking you.

Vakalatnama

Sir,

I was working with one firm, there was 138 mattter filed in court-the said complaint was prepared by my colleague, I was not aware about the facts of the case.

Our firm asked to file vakalatnama us(my colleague & me) on behalf of firm.

The matter was filed in court by my colleague using the same vakalatnama.

Soon after that my colleague left the firm, and after a months time I joined an independent lawyer.

Wht happened in that case, the accused approached me & asked me to appear for her.


My query is can I file my vakalatnama on her behalf( Vakaltanama for complainant has now be signed by some other advocate from the same firm)

Can opposite advocate for complainant take objection on filing my VP. Frankly, when the complaint was handled by my earlier colleague- from drafting to filing, appearance- only the vp contains that colleague & my name. At no point of time I was aware about the facts of the case


My senior tells me I shall take up the matter

Regards,
Bindu
