JUDGMENT

The petitioners challenge the retrospective hike in pole rental. The dispute has to be resolved by the third respondent as per Ext. P1 agreement. The petitioners have in this regard submitted Ext. P4 representation with the third respondent. I direct the third respondent to consider Ext. P4 representation with notice to the petitioners. The needful shall be done within a period of two months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment.

The television cables drawn by the petitioners shall not be dismantled in the meanwhile. This is however subject to the condition that pre-revised rental for the poles is paid up to date.

The writ petition is disposed of.

V. CHITAMBARESH JUDGE
