JOSEPH, J. ```````````````````````````````````````````````````` W.P.(C) No. 32273 OF 2008 P ```````````````````````````````````````````````````` Dated this the 7th day of November, 2008 J U D G M E N T Petitioner challenges Ext.P5. Ext.P5 is an order by which permission is granted under section 16 of the Indian Telegraph Act, 1885 to give connection to the 3rd respondent. 2. I heard learned counsel for the petitioner Sri.Jacob Sebastian and learned standing counsel Sri.P.P.Thajudeen. A perusal of Ext.P5 would show that the petitioner was heard. In the impugned order, it is found that connection can be given to the 3rd respondent by drawing electrical line through the alternate route i.e., through the 'Panchayat vazhi' as per the village records. Learned standing counsel submits that the proposal as per Ext.P5 is not by drawing line across the property of the petitioner. I record the submission and I do not see any ground to interfere. In the result, the writ petition is dismissed. (K.M.JOSEPH, JUDGE) aks
