if you applied for the domestic connection in this regard and if the connection is not provided to you than you have not become the consumer of the agency and you can not move to the consumer court and you can move an application to food and supply inspector or the deputy commissioner in this regard

I have come through one case Example : S applied to Electricity Board for electricity connec¬tion for a flour mill. There was a delay in releasing the connec¬tion. S made a complaint for deficiency in service. He was held a consumer under the Act. - Shamsher Khan v. Rajasthan State Elec¬tricity Board (1993) II CPR 6 (Raj.).

every case has its own merits, in your case I dont think you have become a consumer.
you may make a complaint against the concerned agency to the head office or to the other controlling authority of the government.
