You can file suit for damages. If it is negligence then you can also file consumer complaint.

YOU have both options as told.Of suit or of consumer complaint provided you have authorized connection and have evidence to prove the negligence of the department concerned.

consumer complaint would prove a better as it is cost and time effective.

First issue a legal notice with help of a lawyer then file the complaint.
