| The appellant Sri A.N. Sethumadhavan was already granted service
connection with consumer no. 20155 under LT V tariff by the Assistant
Engineer, Electrical Section, Sultanpet. The appellant had remitted an amount
of Rs. 400/- as security deposit on 09-03-2010. It is alleged that the appellant
is eligible for getting the agriculture service connection at free of cost as per the
prevailing rules. But the respondent has not effected service connection due to
difficulty in constructing the overhead line since the area surrounding the
proposed service connection was water logged.
Since the respondent has not turned up to issue the pending service
connection, the appellant submitted a request on 13-01-2012 for the same. On
02-03-13, the appellant was informed that the service connection could be
effected only after remitting the estimated cost of work as per the revised
guidelines for effecting service connection. Aggrieved by this, the appellant
approached the CGRF, Kozhikode with a petition in OP No. 98/2014-15 which
was disposed on 05-08-2013 directing the respondent to effect service
connection after collecting the OYEC charges from the appellant. Not satisfied
with the above order, the appellant filed this appeal petition before this
Authority on 09-12-14. Since the appellant is a registered consumer as on 09-03-2010, he is eligible for getting service connection at free of cost as per the prevailing rules. Hence it is decided to refund the amount of Rs. 13,250.00 along with interest at any rate within 30 days from the date of receipt of this order. Appeal is admitted. CGRF order is set aside. |
