The Superintending Engineer and others Mr. K Vijay Kumar ... for the petitioner Mr. Tulsi Lall Mr. Arun S.Kumar ... for the respondents April 20, 2023 (Bithika) Item No.20 Counsel for the petitioner and Counsel for the respondents are present.

Learned Counsel for the petitioner submits that, the petitioner has filed an application for grant of electric connection on 27.03.2023 but the authority has rejected the application on the same date i.e on 27.03.2023.

This Court finds that, the ground on which the application filed by the petitioner is rejected is not sustainable under law. Accordingly, the same is set aside.

The respondent No.3 is directed to provide electric connection in the residential premises of

the petitioner standing on survey No. 226/19 situated at Aberdeen Village under Port Blair Tehsil within a period of four weeks from the date of receipt of the copy of the order. It is made clear that providing electric connection will not create any title over the property.

WPA No.578 of 2023 is disposed of.
