Since similar question is involved in both the writ petitions, they are being disposed of together by a common order. It is the case of the petitioners that they have purchased agricultural land to an extent of Ac.15.00 each in Survey No.320 of Bheemuru Village of Gopalapuram Mandal, West Godavari District, vide registered sale deeds dated 20.11.2003 and the revenue authorities are also mutated their names in the revenue records and issued pattedar pass books and title deeds. It is stated that in the said land there is electricity service connections bearing Nos.278 and 279 existing in the name of the vendor and therefore the petitioners submitted applications on 14.7.2005 in the prescribed proforma by paying the required fee seeking to transfer the said service connections in their names. But the respondents have not considered and disposed of the said applications so far. When the property has been purchased along with the said electricity service connections and when such applications have been made requesting to transfer the electricity service connections in the name of the petitioners and the relevant regulations are also permits for such transfer, I deem it appropriate to direct the respondents to consider and dispose of the said applications filed by the petitioners. Accordingly, the first respondent is directed to consider and dispose of the applications filed by the petitioners on 14.7.2005 for transferring the said electricity service connections in the name of the petitioners in accordance with law within two weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. Till then, the respondents shall not take any coercive steps of disconnection of service connections bearing Nos.278 and 279 in Sy.No.320 of Bheemuru Village in the agricultural land belonging to the petitioners.
