THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 07/04/2010, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: P.R. RAMACHANDRA MENON, J. .............................................................................. W.P.(C) No. 12229 OF 2010 ......................................................................... Dated this the 7th April, 2010 J U D G M E N T The petitioner is aggrieved of the lethargy on the part of the first respondent in finalising the objections raised by the respondent Nos. 3 to 5 with regard to the steps to be pursued by the respondent Board in drawing electric line so as to provide electric connection to the residential building of the petitioner . 2. The learned Counsel for the petitioner submits that, for the past eight months, the matter is kept in cold storage without being finalised and that the authorities were dancing to the tune of the respondents 3 to 5, who do not have any properties near the property of the petitioner and hence that there is absolutely no necessity to draw the line through the properties belonging to the respondents 3 to 5, so as to provide electric connection to the building belonging to the petitioner . 3. Heard the learned Government Pleader for the first respondent and the learned Standing Counsel for the second respondent . 4. Considering the limited extent of relief now pressed W.P.(C) No. 12229 OF 2010 2 before this Court, this Court does not find it necessary to issue notice to the respondents 3 to 5 for the time being. In the above circumstance, the first respondent is directed to consider and finalise the matter, in accordance with law, passing appropriate orders in the objection stated as filed by the respondents 3 to 5 with regard to the issue, after giving an opportunity of hearing to all concerned, as expeditiously as possible, at any rate, within a period of one month from the date of receipt of a copy of the judgment. It is made clear that further proceedings for drawing electric line and providing electric connection to the petitioner shall be finalised by the second respondent within two weeks from the date of finalisation of the proceedings by the first respondent as above. The Writ Petition is disposed of as above. P.R. RAMACHANDRA MENON, JUDGE. lk
