J U D G M E N T

The petitioners seek regularisation of the cable lines drawn and also dispute the pole rent demanded. Similar cases have been disposed of directing the second respondent Chief Engineer to entertain the dispute and pass an order adjudicating the claim.

2. Any motion made by the petitioners in this regard within one month from today shall be dealt with by the second respondent within one month therefrom. The Television cables hitherto drawn shall not be dismantled in the meanwhile. This is however subject to the condition that each of the petitioners remit onethird of the individual demand raised against them within a period of one month.

The Writ Petition is disposed of.

Sd/- V.CHITAMBARESH, Judge.
