ORDER

By Sri. P.C. PAULACHEN – PRESIDENT 

           This is a complaint filed under section 35 of the Consumer Protection Act, 2019.

2.  The case of the complainant, in brief, is as follows:

     The complainant purchased a cow from the opposite party on 16-03-2023 paying Rs.38,000/-. But the cow is not giving 11 litres of milk as assured by the opposite party. Moreover, the cow is having some illness. Hence the complaint claiming compensation of Rs.45,000/-. 

3. The opposite party remained ex-parte.
4. The points that arise for determination in this case are :

1.            Whether  there was any unfair trade practice on the part of the opposite party, as alleged ?
2.            Reliefs and costs

5. Point No.1 –  The opposite party was set as ex-parte. The case was  posted for  evidence of the complainant  several times . But the complainant also remained absent and did not file affidavit or adduce any evidence.  The fact that the opposite party was set ex-parte does not automatically entitles the complainant to get the relief sought for. It is for the  complainant to prove the allegations in the complaint by adducing proper evidence. But the complainant  in this case has utterly failed to prove his case. No unfair trade practice as alleged is proved against the opposite party.

6. Point No.2 :  In view of the finding on the above point, the complainant is not entitled to get the relief sought for and the complaint is only  to be dismissed. 

In the result, CC 143/2023 is dismissed.  No order as to costs.

Pronounced in open Commission on this the 30^th day of May  2023.
