Analysis and Conclusion

The overarching consensus across the cited cases is that civil suits challenging electricity-related demands or disputes are generally not maintainable under the Electricity Act due to the express bar under Section 145, which mandates resolution through statutory remedies. Civil courts are barred from interfering in such matters unless the remedies under the Act have been exhausted or the suit falls outside the scope of the Act's provisions. This ensures that disputes related to electricity are resolved within specialized forums, maintaining jurisdictional clarity and procedural discipline.
