Counsel for the Petitioner: MR.M.GANGA RAO Counsel for the Respondents.: MR.V.AJAYAKUMAR The Court at the admission stage made the following : ORDER: The petitioner seeks a writ of mandamus directing the respondents to shift the service lines and change the Hi-Tension Line polls passing through the petitioner’s lands in Survey No.244/4 situated at Bomulur Village, Bapalapadu Mandal, Krishna District and lay them as per the accepted survey plan, dated 26.02.2004, to minimize damage to his crops. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that originally there was a plan to lay the service polls in a particular pattern. Subsequently, as there was a change in the plan, the polls were laid through the lands of the petitioner and the service lines were also passing through the lands of the petitioner and as a result, the petitioner is put to great hardship and inconvenience for carrying out the agricultural operations in his fields.. This is, in fact, a factual aspect, which this Court cannot go into, and if there is any inconvenience to the petitioner, because of the change in the pattern of laying the Hi-Tension Line polls, it is always open for him to make a complaint to the competent authorities. It is not in dispute that the petitioner had already made a representation on 05.05.2004 to the 3rd respondent, which is still pending. Having regard to the facts and circumstances of the case, the writ petition is disposed of, with a direction to the 3rd respondent to consider the representation made by the petitioner, by examining his lands, if necessary, and take necessary steps by passing appropriate orders, as expeditiously as possible. There shall be no order as to costs. _________ 03.03.2005 Jsu/Ka To 1 The Transmission Corporation, rep. by its Divisional Engineer, A.P.S.P.D.C.L, Krishna District. 2 The Asst.
