NCDRC Judgements binding on all Consumer Forums? Sir/Madam, Like Supreme Court
of India judgements are binding on lower courts. Are the Central Information
Commission and State Information Commission decided cases/judgements a binding
on the PIO's and APIO's? The National Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission
(NCDRC) and the state consumer forums of respective states in India's decided
cases/judgements a binding on all the District Forums in India? Why I am asking
this is. Related to my case there are various judgements given by CIC, SIC and
NCDRC, State Consumer Forum which are similar to my case. Hence can these
judgements be used in the case which I am fighting on my own at the District
Consumer Forum and at APIO and PIO levels? Are the District Consumer Forum
required to follow these judgements if I cite them in my case? If the consumer
forum or the SIC or the APIP or PIO do not follow the citations what to do
then? Can a complaint be made against them to the Appellate authorities?

These decisions and judgments can be cited in writing in and can be referred during the arguments. It is imperative that the context is properly argued.
