Dwarka Forum (Regd.)
For Dwarkaites and residents of nearby colonies, the Consumer Court is over 20 kilometer away near Qutab Hotel at Mehrauli though the present estimated population of Dwarka is 6-lakh and will soon cross over 10-lakh as more and more societies are conducting draws for allotment of flats to their members and new sectors in its phase three are developing fast. The above population  is in addition to the persons living in nearly villages and other colonies.  In Dwarka, many Societies are having disputes with the builders and they need to settle this through Consumer Courts. There are many companies and big and small shopkeepers are also here and therefore, often, consumer related dispute arises.  The Government aimed at to provide justice at the door steps of the residents of every zone by establishing many Consumer Courts but for Dwarka, theConsumer Court is at Mehrauli which is 20-25 km away from here. 
Now, the Dwarka is having its own District Court for the last over two years and in the District Court complex, DF has come to know that there is enough space to House the Consumer Court also.  Therefore, residents demand that the consumer Court should be transferred in Dwarka from a far away place so that they can avail this facility in real terms.  By doing this, government will do justice to the residents.
