JUDGMENT

The electricity supply to the house of the petitioner has been snapped abruptly. This is because the petitioner has not yet fixed an Earth Leakage Circuit Breaker (ELCB). The petitioner is prepared to fix the ELCB as directed. Ext.P3 representation is pending with the second respondent in this regard.

2. I direct the second respondent to consider Ext.P3 representation with notice to the petitioner. The electricity connection shall be restored immediately on the petitioner fixing an ELCB in the premises. It shall be ensured that all safety precautions are taken in the matter.

The Writ Petition is disposed of.
