AI extract
What is this about?
The single-judge bench held that a writ petition challenging an order under Section 27 of the Consumer Protection Act, 1986 was not maintainable. The Court reasoned that the statutory appeal under Section 27-A provided an efficacious alternative remedy, thus precluding exercise of its extraordinary jurisdiction under Article 226 of the Constitution.
What did the court decide?
Writ Petition dismissed on the ground of availability of statutory appeal remedy under Section 27-A of the Consumer Protection Act, 1986. Pending miscellaneous petitions dismissed.
