The Electricity Board seeks No Objection Certificate from the fourth respondent temple for the purpose of issuing electricity connection. The prayer as such cannot be granted. However, considering the limited request made by the petitioner, a direction is issued to the fourth respondent to consider the application made by the petitioner and dispose of the same, if permitted in law, within a period of four weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order.
