ORAL ORDER

Per – Hon’ble Mr. V. P. Utpat, President

          None present for the Complainant even on second call.  Today Complainant failed to appear before this Forum without any sufficient reason.  Perusal of the order-sheet reveals that so was the position even on previous two dates viz. 07/04/2017 and 07/03/2017.  On perusal of scrutiny-sheet maintained by the Registry it is evident that Complainant was aware of the fact that present consumer complaint was listed before this Forum for hearing on admission on 07/03/2017 as, Adv. Chetan Joshi, learned counsel for the Complainant had put his signature on the scrutiny-sheet in token on acceptance of knowledge about listing of present consumer complaint before this Forum on 07/03/2017.  However, inspite of knowledge, Complainant not only failed to appear before this Forum but also failed to prima-facie make a sufficient good case for admission of present consumer complaint.  Thus, in these peculiar circumstances, it is evident that Complainant has lost his interest in further prosecution of present consumer complaint.  In such circumstances, it is not desirable to prolong the case.  Hence, consumer complaint is not admitted and stands dismissed for want of prosecution in accordance with the provisions of Section-13(2)(c) of the Consumer Protection Act, 1986 read with Rule-4(7) of the Maharashtra Consumer Protection Rules, 2000.  Parties shall bear their own costs.
