(Per : HONOURABLE MR.JUSTICE P.B.MAJMUDAR) The appellant, who has already sold his property to the concerned respondent, initially applied for effecting temporary disconnection and he had never applied for permanent disconnection of electricity supply. As per his letter dated 06th July, 2011 the appellant had applied to the Executive Engineer of the electricity company that because of monsoon he is not in need of electricity connection and therefore, temporarily it may be disconnected. In fact the appellant played mischief as at that time he has already sold the property and without informing about the same to the electricity company, he has written letter to disconnect the electricity connection temporarily. The electricity connection thereafter temporarily disconnected by the electricity company. The bonafide purchaser of the property therefore approached the electricity company that they are without electricity. Under such circumstances, the electricity company restored the electricity connection.
The grievance of the appellant is that now electricity connection should not be restored to him. In our view, the appellant has never applied for transfer of electricity connection in favour of the bonafide purchaser. If any application is preferred by the appellant for such transfer, the electricity company shall decide such application in accordance with law expeditiously.
Considering the said aspect, grievance of the appellant that electricity connection should not be restored in his name is not accepted. In view of the same, appeal is dismissed.
