THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 09/06/2009, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: ANTONY DOMINIC,J. --------------------- W.P.(C).No.14199 OF 2009 ------------------------ Dated this the 9th day of June, 2009. JUDGMENT The allegation in this writ petition is that attempt was being made by respondents to draw electric line through the petitioner's property ignoring her objections and without obtaining orders from the Additional District Magistrate. 2. The standing counsel appearing for the respondents submits that the proposal was to draw the line through a pathway and that though the petitioner raised objections, the beneficiary had produced documents to prove that the pathway is that of the beneficiary himself. It is stated that, the version of the beneficiary was accepted and without making any petition to the Additional District Magistrate, the line was drawn and was energized on 5.2.2009, which was more than 3 months before the filing WP(c).No.14199/09 /2/ of this writ petition. Although the petitioner disputes the claim of the Board that the pathway is that of the beneficiary having regard to the fact that the line has already drawn and is energized, the option available to the petitioner is to get the grievance redressed by approaching the appropriate forum. With that liberty and leaving open the contentions, the writ petition is closed (ANTONY DOMINIC) JUDGE vi/ WP(c).No.14199/09 /2/
