The Supreme Court has held that an individual facing any deficiency in telecom services can approach consumer forums directly with his complaint against the company. The fact that the remedy of arbitration under the Indian Telegraph Act of 1885 is of a statutory nature would not oust the jurisdiction of the consumer forum in such matters, a bench of Justices DY Chandrachud, Surya Kant and Vikram Nath said.
