Members of the Consumer Dispute Redressal Commission of Maharashtra have been themselves seeking redressal. The Consumer Court Advocates Association (CCAA) has accused the state government of not addressing issues regarding low hygiene standards at their workplace in Annex Building, Old Secretariat at Kala Ghoda.
The president of State Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission, Justice AP Bhangale, told mid-day that his judicial staff members have been suffering from dengue and malaria for the last few months. "The maintenance of hygiene is not satisfactory at all. There are several pockets filled with rain-water where dengue mosquitoes lay eggs. Many judicial staff members including me were bitten and I was admitted to JJ Hospital for eight days for dengue. This is a pathetic condition," said the former Bombay High Court judge.
