You being insured should move before consumer forum in the given facts.

Yes consumer court is a good option regarding your case!

If the Lok adalat (Public Utility services) exists in your district you may also move to that otherwise Consumer Forum is the way.

Permanent Lok Adalat for Public Ulity Services has also started working in many districts so if this facility is available in your district, avail it.
