Power of Attorney on behalf of other consumers...

In a consumer matter, there are six complainants... few of them are unavailable when required.

Will respective Special Power of Attorneys from 5 of them to the sixth consumer would be sufficient to represent them in the matter that includes signing of documents like rejoinder / written arguments, on their behalf.

You can conduct the case but can not appear in the shoes of the applicant , but in consumer courts you can form an association.

yes, power of attorney will serve the purpose. you should have to see the contention of all the persons and their record along with 6th person. if it is for the same relief by all the 6 persons with common cause of action, then you can go ahead with the power of attorney.
