Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court criticized the State Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission, Haryana for issuing standard orders without proper consideration of pleadings, submissions, and evidence in First Appeals. The Court emphasized that the Appellate Forum must provide valid reasons for its decisions, and such cursory dismissals do not meet legal standards. Consequently, the Court ordered a remand of the matter to the State Commission for fresh disposal in accordance with law, while maintaining the status quo.
