HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE GOPALA KRISHNA TAMADA W.P.No.3628 of 2001 Dated 31st day of October, 2007 Between: L.K.Prabhavathi .. Petitioner And The Assistant Divisional Engineer, Distribution IV, C.VII, Central Power Distribution Company of A.P. Limited, A.P. Transco, Mehdipatnam, Hyderabad and three others .. Respondents O R D E R: This writ petition is filed seeking a mandamus to declare the action of respondents 1 to 3 in disconnecting the power supply and removing the meter of the petitioner’s house bearing D.No.No.9-4- 86/275, situated in Plot No.275, Salarjung Colony, Mehadipatnam, Hyderabad, as arbitrary and illegal, and consequently direct respondents 1 to 3 to restore the power supply forthwith. It appears that there is a dispute between the petitioner and the 4th respondent with regard to the property bearing D.No.9-4-86/275 situated in Salarjung Colony, Mehadipatnam, Hyderabad. As the 4th respondent addressed a letter to respondents 1 to 3 claiming title over the property and as there are arrears of consumption charges to be paid by the petitioner, respondents 1 to 3 disconnected the power supply of the property in question. Aggrieved by this, the petitioner has filed this writ petition. On 2.3.2001, this Court, while issuing Notice before admission, ordered restoration of the power supply to the petitioner’s house. Evidently, there is a property dispute and the same is the subject matter in O.S.No.2473 of 2000 on the file of V Junior Civil Judge, City Civil Court, Hyderabad. Hence, this Court, without going into the merits of the case and also having regard to the fact that respondents 1 to 3 have already been directed to restore the power supply to the petitioner, holds that the interim direction shall continue pending disposal of the suit. It is also made clear that the petitioner shall pay the usual consumption charges within the specified date. With the above direction, this writ petition is disposed of. No costs. ​ _______________ 31.10.2007 bcj
