A three phase LT electric line is crossing the property of the appellant and the line extends beyond the property and already provided an electric connection from the extended line to one Sri. Praveen Antony. The appellant approached the Licensee for shifting the line from his property and the Executive Engineer intimated the appellant that the line can be shifted under deposit work basis. Further, the appellant filed a petition before CGRF for the same purpose. The respondent prepared two proposals for shifting the line. The CGRF in its order says, “The line shall be shifted on remittance of the estimate amount under deposit work scheme by the petitioner in accordance with Regulation 95 of Electricity Supply Code 2014”. Aggrieved by the decision of the Forum, the appellant filed appeal petition. The appellant’s plea to exempt from remitting the expense for the shifting of the electric line is rejected and this Authority modified the decision taken by the CGRF, Central Region in OP No. 56/2020-21 dated 24-02-2021. The appellant can opt any technically feasible route proposed by the respondent and the appellant shall remit the expense for the shifting of the line. |
