The petitioner through instant petition under Articles 226/227 of the Constitution of India is seeking setting aside of order dated 16.02.2025 passed by District Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission, Nuh, Haryana (for short 'District Commission'). 2.

Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that District Commission has passed impugned order without jurisdiction. 3.

On being asked, learned counsel for the petitioner expressed his inability to controvert that impugned order is an appealable order, however, submits that question of jurisdiction is involved, thus, writ is maintainable.
