JOSEPH, J. -------------------------------------- W.P.C. NO. 33978 OF 2008 T -------------------------------------- Dated this the 2nd February, 2009 JUDGMENT Case of the petitioner, in brief, is as follows: Petitioner is the joint owner of a land. The third respondent applied for electric connection. It is stated that the second respondent did not insist for consent of the petitioner. All the persons except the petitioner were issued with notices in respect of the proceedings. Petitioner made enquiries. It is not in dispute that the matter is pending consideration before the District Magistrate. According to the petitioner, the proposal is to draw the line across his property. If that be so, I think, in the light of the facts, it is appropriate that the petitioner is afforded an opportunity to place his objections also and a decision is taken after considering his objections. There are alternate routes also, he submits. In such circumstances, the petitioner is given ten days from today to file his objections and the first respondent will consider the same and take a decision in WPC.33978/08 T 2 accordance with law, with notice and opportunity of hearing to all the parties. The Writ Petition is disposed of as above. Sd/= K. M. JOSEPH, JUDGE kbk. // True Copy // PS to Judge
