 P-009/2021-Sri. Anilkumar.G - Order 12-07-2021  |

| The appellant’s son, Sri. Abhijith had requested to the Assistant Engineer of the Section Office for shifting the Low Tension three phase line from the appellant’s property to the nearby road and to re-route the weatherproof wire used for providing service connection to his brother’s house conveniently under deposit work. The respondent prepared an estimate for the above work and a portion of the amount deposited in the section office and the remaining portion paid to the contractor, who arranged the works as directed by the respondent. But, as per appellant, the work was not properly carried out and erection of electric pole is inconvenient to the appellant. The appellant filed petition to the CGRF, Northern Region for the convenient rearrangement of the line. But the Forum rejected the request of the appellant, observing that the line was drawn in technically feasible way and the Licensee had acted as per rules prevailing. But it is to be noted that even the shifting of line is shortest, economical or through a technically feasible route, if any genuine objection from the part of nearby property owners, it is proper to file the case before the District Magistrate. Hence, this Authority declines to enter the merit of the request of the appellant for compensation also. The appellant may approach the District Magistrate for the redressal of their grievance as further objections may be raised by the owners of the property through which shifting of the electric line is done and from the nearby property owners. The order of CGRF in OP No.87/2020-21 dated 13-01-2021 is set aside. |
