Dear Client,
A dispute between a Tenant and Landlord is resolved under the state-specific Rent Control Act or the Premises Tenancy Act, under which a Rent Controller or Addl/Dy. Rent Controller is appointed to deal with the dispute arising out of a rent/lease agreement between the parties. In the given scenario, serving a legal notice to the Landlord/Building owner, you can file an application explaining your grievance against the arbitrary and unethical action of the landlord/building owner before the concerned Rent Controller to resolve the issue legally and amicably. Considering the safety point of view, you can also bring the matter to the notice of the concerned electricity supply or distribution board/agency to resolve the issue.

Dear Sir,

File a Complaint: Call the toll-free number 1912 or the other contact numbers provided by the Goa Electricity Department. You can also send an email to customersupport@goaelectricity.gov.in.

Explain the Situation: Tell them that the main meter for the property is on, but the electricity to your specific room/unit has been cut off by the landlord. This is not a power outage issue but a deliberate action by the landlord.

They Cannot Legally Disconnect You: The Electricity Department cannot disconnect a tenant's supply at the request of a landlord, especially if the tenant is in lawful possession of the property and the bills are paid. The department's primary concern is the payment of bills, not landlord-tenant disputes. They will likely send a technician to check the connection.
