JUDGMENT

All that the petitioner prays is for easy instalments to pay the amount due under Ext.P4 notice. The same arose on account of alleged theft of electrical energy detected by the Anti Power Theft Squad.

I permit the petitioner to pay the amount due with interest in three equal monthly instalments starting from 29.05.2015. The electricity connection shall be restored to the premises of the petitioner if the first instalment is paid. The electricity connection shall not be snapped again if the petitioner pays the remaining two instalments along with the monthly payments as directed.

The Writ Petition is disposed of.
