R.P. No.153 of 2010 in W.A. No.835 of 2009 .................................................................... Dated this the 6th day of September, 2010. ORDER Ramachandran Nair, J. Heard counsel for the review petitioner and counsel for the respondents. The Rent Control Petition between the parties is pending. Counsel for the respondent submitted that arrears of rent are being paid in terms of orders of this court before the Rent Control Court. If there is any variation on this, it is for the Rent Control Court to ensure that rent is paid to the extent payable. Counsel for the review petitioner submitted that respondent has not cleared electricity dues and charges due to Water Authority. According to him, when building is vacated, the liability will fall on the petitioner as owner of the property and in any case premises will be treated as default premises for getting fresh connection. We find force in this contention. However, since respondent has denied any such arrears due to Electricity Board or Water Authority, we dispose of the Review Petition with direction to the Electricity Board as well as the Water Authority not to allow any 2 arrears to mount up, but to make prompt disconnection for default in payment after giving reasonable time to clear the arrears with interest, if any payable. If any monthly bill is not paid in the following month, disconnection should be made atleast in the month following thereafter. The petitioner can produce this judgment before the K.S.E.B. and Water Authority for compliance. C.N.RAMACHANDRAN NAIR Judge V.K.MOHANAN Judge pms
