From the sketch produced by the learned Standing Counsel for the K.S.E.B., it is seen that the connection is proposed to beneficiary from an electric post, wherefrom petitioner himself has taken connection to his house. The line drawn from that post is passing only over the road. In the circumstances, petitioner cannot have any grievance against the connection given from an existing post by drawing of line over the road or pathway. This writ petition is, therefore, disposed of upholding the order of the ADM directing respondents 1 and 2 to give connection to the beneficiary. However, it is made clear that petitioner's right over the road or pathway is not affected by the electric connection given to the 3rd respondent. (C.N.RAMACHANDRAN NAIR, JUDGE) jg
