SRI.C.S.RAMANATHAN, SC, BSNL FOR R1,2 THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 28/08/2008, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: S. SIRI JAGAN, J. ------------------------------------ W.P.(C)No. 22794 OF 2008 ---------------------------------------- Dated this the 28th day of August, 2008 JUDGMENT The petitioner filed this writ petition complaining that a main pillar for distribution panel constructed by the BSNL obstructs ingress and egress to her shop. But I am satisfied that the same is constructed in such a manner that no inconvenience is caused to the petitioner. However, taking into account the representation filed by the petitioner, the BSNL has come to an agreement with the petitioner as per Ext.P5. But the BSNL insists that since the basement of the pillar has already been constructed, for shifting the same, the petitioner should bear the expenses. I am of opinion that in so far as the BSNL has not done anything against law, when the pillar is being shifted for the convenience of the petitioner, the petitioner should bear the expenses already incurred by the BSNL for the purpose of constructing the platform. With the said direction, the writ petition is disposed of in terms of Ext.P5 settlement between the parties. S. SIRI JAGAN, JUDGE Acd
