SRI.R. VIJAYAKUMAR, MEMBER.

 

            The complaint is filed for getting a direction for reconnection of Electric supply and compensation and cost.

 

          The averments in the complaint can be briefly summarized as follows:

 

          Aggravated by a complaint lodged before Dist. Collector about a connection granted by the opp.parties through over the premises of the complainant, the 1st opp.party disconnected Electric Connection in the premises of the complainant.   The  learning of the complainant is daughter interrupted and complainant has sustained losses because of this illegal act.  Hence the complaint.

 

          The opp.party 1 and 2 filed version contending that the complaint is not maintainable either in law or on facts.   The complainant violated Indian Electricity Act 2003 by cutting down Electric line to her neighours’s house.  Both lines to her and her neighbour Vijayakumari is starting from the same end of an electric line from the adjacent Electrical Post.   The act of complainant caused disconnection of both connection at the starting end of the lines from the Electric post.   The opp.party lodged a complaint before Anchalummoodu Police Station on 28.12.2005.  The Electric line of Vijaykumari is passing through the pathway to her house and not over the house of complainant.   There is no deficiency in service on the part of opp.party.  Hence the complaint is liable to be dismissed with cost.

 

          The complainant filed affidavit.  PW.1 examined.  Exts. P1 and P2 were marked.  From  the side of opp.parties.

 

DW.1 examined.  Exts. D1 and D2 were marked.  Heard both sides.

 

          The points that would arise for consideration are:

1.     Whether there is any deficiency in service on the part of the opp.party?

2.     Compensation and costs.

 

Points 1 and 2

 

          The allegation of the complainant is that the opp.parties disconnected Electric Connection in her premises because of the opp.parties have aggravated by the complaint lodged by her before the District Collector.

 

          The complainant failed to prove her allegation that opp.parties purposefully disconnected Electric Supply.  On a careful verification of documents we find that there is no deficiency in service on the part of opp.party.   As per the order of Consumer Disputes Redressal forum, Kollam dated 31.10.2001 Electric Connection was reconnected.  The complainant is not entitled to get any compensation or other reliefs as prayed for

 

          In the result the complaint fails and the same is hereby dismissed.  No costs.

 

            Dated this the 31st day of July, 2009.
