By Ext.P12, the fourth respondent has found that the installation of the transformer is only to be sustained. In doing so, he relied upon the Report of the Electrical Inspector also. Learned counsel for the petitioner would submit that the petitioner does not press the challenge as regards Ext.P12 regarding the installation of the transformer. He only submits that the two electric posts which are mentioned in Ext.P7(a) standing by the side of the property of the petitioner may be shifted to the opposite side. Learned standing counsel appearing on behalf of the respondent Electricity Board submits that it is for the petitioner to move the second respondent who is the competent authority in this regard. In such circumstances, while rejecting the Writ Petition, it is ordered that if the petitioner moves the second respondent seeking removal of the two electric posts, the second respondent will consider the same and take a decision thereon in accordance with law, without any undue delay.
