During the pendency of the present writ petition, there had been a direction to the Electricity Board to issue connection to the petitioner in accordance with his number in the priority list, which would be on the basis of deposit already made by him without demanding the additional sum, which had been allowed for in the policy challenged in the writ petition. 2. I have not the benefit of assistance of the petitioner to CWP No.7515 of 1989(O&M) [2] know whether the petitioner had obtained such connection or not. It is not possible to sustain a challenge contained in the policy without any basis. The counsel for the respondent- Electricity Board is present and he has no instruction whether electricity connection was given to the petitioner or not. 3. The writ petition is dismissed for non-prosecution by the petitioner. DECEMBER 16, 2011 ( K. KANNAN ) Rajan JUDGE
