He has also a share in another parcel of land described in Ext.P1 sale deed. The petitioner has filed this writ petition for an order directing respondents 2 and 3 to refrain from drawing electricity line through the said properties. 2. The pleadings and the materials on record disclose that the petitioner has moved this Court aggrieved by the proposal of respondents 2 and 3 to draw a high tension electricity line through a portion of his land. The petitioner's mother has already filed an objection dated 23.8.2011 objecting to the proposal and the petitioner has submitted Ext.P4 objection dated 20.10.2011 reiterating the objections raised by his mother. In such circumstances, as the petitioner and his mother have objected to the line being drawn through their lands, I am of the opinion that the respondents should move the Additional District Magistrate, Palakkad and seek his permission before proceeding WPC No.27472/2011 2 to draw the line. I accordingly dispose of the writ petition with a direction to respondents 1 and 2 to move the Additional District Magistrate, Palakkad and seek his permission before proceeding to draw the line through the land belonging to the petitioner. The Additional District Magistrate shall in the event of respondents 2 and 3 invoking his jurisdiction, issue notice to the petitioner and respondents 2 and 3 and pass appropriate order thereon expeditiously and in any event within one month from the date on which respondents 2 and move him for permission.
