| The appellant, Sri T.S. Murali had submitted an application to the Assistant Engineer, Electrical Section, Chempu and also to the Chief Minister of Kerala for shifting the single phase line passing through the middle of his property so as to construct a new building. The Assistant Engineer inspected the site and found that shifting of line from the appellant’s property is not technically feasible and hence proposed to be shifted through the nearby private road. According to the respondent, since the road is owned by 10 individuals, consent from all of them is required. As the appellant is not in a position to obtain consent from the property owners he approached the CGRF, Kottarakkara with a complaint.
The CGRF disposed of the petition directing the respondent to shift the overhead line through the feasible private road, on production of the consent from the owners of the private road. Also it is directed the appellant to remit the labour charges for the shifting work as estimated by the respondent. Not satisfied with the above decision of the CGRF, the appellant submitted this appeal petition before this Authority.
In view of the discussions it is proved that the beneficiary, Sri Noushad had a right to draw the line to his residence through an alternate route which is owned by himself and 8 others. Hence the request of the appellant is to shift the overhead line drawn through his property, for giving connection to Sri Noushad can be entertained by the respondent if it is found feasible. In the above circumstances, the respondent is directed to issue notice to Sri Noushad and take necessary steps for shifting the overhead line from the appellant’s property observing Regulation 95 of Supply Code, 2014 and provisions of Indian Telegraph Act, 1885. The appeal is disposed of accordingly. The order of CGRF in OP No. 24/2016 dated 13-04-2016 is modified to the extent as ordered above. No order as to costs. |
