Tolerance by the Police and Judiciary when a Apartment Association cuts off the Water supply to an apartment.?

In India, there are numerous incidents wherein Apartment Associations because of self centered and megalomaniac office bearers have disconnected the water supply to certain Apartments causing extreme hardship and inconvenience to the resident and his family. There is no help from the Police to protect the residents right and he having no other alternative, decides to file a civil suit for damages and restoration of Water supply. Is it not ironic that the Court accepts the case and the poor resident has to wait for years for justice. Cannot such cases be tried by a Magistrate immediately on filing and interim orders for restoration be given and then tried by a Judge of the Civil court. It would be better if stopping of water supply is declared a crime and and the case be tried in a Criminal Court. This will surely scare the egoistical, megalomaniac and stupid self styled Office bearers in indulging in this inhuman method. And why does this happen in India only. Can we still expect a reformation in the laws, or let these criminals enjoy our discomfort and helplessness. Can anyone tell the affected resident from where he can seek relief from these criminals.

Update:

@Hande. Not necessarily non payment of bills. It can happen due to personal animosities and petty jealousies also. These guys are stupid and megalomaniac by nature and in our country both the Executive and Judicial system with their archaic laws and rules are unable to hold them in check. Maybe we have other methods of seeking Justice to save our self respect.

    Normally such things do not happen unless there is non payment of bills.
