RAVINDRAN, J. ------------------------------- W.P.(C) No.13141 of 2010 ------------------------------- Dated this the 11th day of February, 2011 J U D G M E N T In this writ petition, the petitioner challenges Ext.P5 order passed by the Additional District Magistrate, Malappuram permitting the Kerala State Electricity Board to draw electricity line through her lands for the purpose of giving electricity connection to the residence of the fifth respondent. It is now agreed before me by the learned counsel on both sides that pursuant to an agreement arrived at between the parties, the petitioner has permitted the fifth respondent to draw electricity line through the north-eastern boundary of her lands and that the petitioner has also given a consent letter dated 24.1.2011 permitting the officers of the Kerala State Electricity Board to draw the line along that route. A copy of the said consent letter has been produced along with the memo dated 11.2.2011 filed by the learned Government Pleader. The consent letter states that the petitioner shall cut and remove the trees which stand in her lands for the purpose of enabling the line to be drawn along the route agreed upon. In such circumstances, I find no reason to keep the writ petition pending. It is accordingly disposed of with a direction to the W.P.(C) No.13141 of 2010 2 Kerala State Electricity Board to draw the electricity line to the residence of the fifth respondent along the route suggested in the consent letter of the petitioner dated 24.1.2011.
