RAVIKUMAR, J. -------------------------------------------- C.O.(C). NO. 147 OF 2011 -------------------------------------------- Dated this the 1st day of June, 2011 JUDGMENT The above captioned C.O.(C) has been filed alleging wilful inaction on the part of the respondent to comply with the directions of this Court in judgment dated 26.10.2010 in W.P.(C).No.29439 of 2010. 2. As per the judgment in W.P.(C).No.29439/2010, this Court directed the third respondent therein to consider Ext.P5 representation therein and take appropriate remedial action, expeditiously, at any rate, within one month from the date of receipt of a copy of the judgment. An affidavit has been filed in this C.O.(C) by the respondent. A perusal of the statements made in the affidavit would go to show that the respondent has taken all possible steps to remedy the grievances raised by the petitioner in Ext.P5 and they were substantially redressed. The only surviving grievance is with respect to the fault on the side of the Low Tension line. The statements made in paragraph 12 of the counter affidavit would reveal that no wilful negligence or disobedience could be attributed on the respondent for the same. It is the shortage of AB switch that impedes its C.O.(C) NO.147/2011 2 redressal. It is stated in the affidavit as follows:- “The Kerala State Electricity Board has given direction to provide AB switch for all transformer stations as per the availability of AB switch”. It will only be appropriate for the respondent to take appropriate follow up action in this issue as well. With the said observation, this C.O.(C) is closed. Sd/- (C.T.
