IN THE HIGH COURT AT CALCUTTA

CONSTITUTIONAL WRIT JURISDICTION APPELLATE SIDE W.P.A. No. 17128 of 2022 Sushil Let alias Susil Vs.

West Bengal State Electricity Distribution Company Limited & Ors.

Ms. Manali Biswas, ...for the petitioner Mr. Srijan Nayak, Ms. Rituparna Maitra ...for the WBSEDCL Mr. Amal Kumar Banerjee ...for the private respondents Learned counsel appearing for the private respondents vociferously contends that the objection taken by the private respondents to the electricity connection being given to the petitioner was not considered before giving an electricity connection to the petitioner.

However, the present writ petition has been filed at the behest of the petitioner, who, through counsel, submits in Court that the electricity connection has already been given to the petitioner; thus, the cause of action of the writ petition has already spent its force and the petitioner does not want to proceed any further with the writ petition.

Hence, W.P.A. No. 17128 of 2022 is disposed of as infructuous, with liberty to the private respondents to approach the appropriate authority/authorities with their objection with regard to the connection being given to the petitioner.

If so approached, the authorities shall decide the issue in accordance with law after giving an opportunity of hearing to all concerned.

There will be no order as to costs.

Urgent photostat certified copies of this order, if applied for, be made available to the parties upon compliance of all necessary formalities.
