Appeal against sc judgment

 

SC Says All Telecom Disputes Will Now Be Resolved Under Telegraph Act

“It is a settled law that general law must yield to special law,” said the Bench and noted that there was a remedy prescribed under Section 7B of the Telegraph Act for resolution of all disputes regarding telecom through arbitration. The Bench said since there was a specific statutory remedy prescribed, it would oust the jurisdiction of consumer courts.

The decision of the Hon'be Supreme Court is One Sided Decision. One of the bad effect of this decision is now all telecome companies are free to discontinue the service and breach the contract any time. No pressure to provide better service to consumers. Everybody know even our Govt. also know that our Govt./PSUs Employees are most currupted employees in the world. As per the Hon'ble Supreme Court's decision, the Arbitrators are their own and the decision also.

Now, can we invoke the jurisidriction of Supreme court to set aside this order, Because as per CPA 1986 it is additional remedy. This judgment is one the bane for INDIAN CONUSMERS. I appeal to learned counsels and other Consumer welfare groups to cogitate on this issue. This judgment has became like a shield for all private telecom sectors for all the bad deeds they are doing to harass consumers.
