Heard the learned Counsel for the parties. 2. An amount of Rs. 30000/- is deposited in this Court by Order of this Court, dated 28th September, 2006. This application has been made by the Electricity Board that they should be allowed to withdraw that amount as that amount was deposited on account of electricity bill for electricity consumption by the petitioner. The dispute is with regard to the bill. Therefore, in any case the petitioner will have to pay the said amount and even if he succeeds in this petition and it is held that he was not bound to pay any amount towards the electricity consumption to the [2] respondents, this amount, which is already deposited, can be either adjusted for his future consumption of electricity or the respondent No.1 can be directed to refund the said amount. Therefore, the application is allowed. The learned Counsel for the petitioner submits that he has challenged the bills and this bill amount is continuously being shown in his current bills alongwith interest. 3. In this view of the matter we direct that the petitioner shall continue to pay only the current electricity charges irrespective of the amounts of the bills shown on account of interest or outstanding amounts. 4. Civil application is accordingly disposed of. 5. The petition to come up for hearing in regular course.
