For lodging a complaint in the consumer forum, there should a dispute reg the services rendered by the company. Mere issuing the bills for electricity by itself does not constitute a dispute unless u had raised an objection in writing with the company and the company failed to rectify the mistake. So first write to the company to discontinue the bills as the connection had been disconnected during the life time of ur father and also call upon the company to cancel all the bills and also refund the security deposit kept with the company.
