    Case Summary: Government of Gujarat v. Girdhar Harilal Joshi (17/2026) The National Green Tribunal discharged the accused under Section 135 of the Indian Electricity Act, 2003, finding insufficient evidence of the primary offense. The court held that while the accused deposited electricity bill amounts and compounding charges with the electricity company during investigation, the TDS authority's subsequent report under Section 152 of the Act did not establish a cognizable offense warranting prosecution under Section 152.
