He entered into development agreement through registered agreement deed dated 14.06.2018 with petitioners 1 and 2. Petitioners claim that as construction of individual houses were completed in the above house number, they have applied for providing electric power supply connections to their houses, but so far the power supply connection is not provided to their houses and the applications are not accepted on the ground that the State Government and the GHMC are opposing to provide electric power supply connection to any property located in Sri Swamy Ayyappa Cooperative Housing Society Limited.
