ORDER
Heard
learned advocate Shri A.B.Ghatesania for learned advocate Shri Satyen
B.Raval for the petitioner. I have also heard Ms.Trusha Patel,
learned AGP for the respondent no.1-State of Gujarat and
Mr.N.K.Majmudar, learned advocate for the respondent no.2-Gujarat
Electricity Board. Petitioner had approached this Court for
reconnection of the electricity which was disconnected by the
respondent no.2 for non-payment of bill for an amount of Rs.6,994.53.
Though
there is some dispute about the bill being for outstanding dues of
the petitioner or that of the erstwhile owner of the land purchased
by the petitioner wherein the electric connection was granted, in the
facts of this case, it is not necessary to go into this matter.
While
admitting the petition, the learned Single Judge has directed by way
of interim relief to reconnect the electric connection of the
petitioner on the petitioner depositing the balance amount of
supplementary bill and other legally leviable charges. It is not in
dispute that pursuant to the said interim order, upon petitioner
depositing the balance amount, the respondent no.2 had at the
relevant time granted reconnection.
Since,
the petitioner had paid up the dues and since the GEB has reconnected
the electric supply, nothing further is required to be done in this
behalf. In that view of the matter, petition is disposed of
requiring no further orders.
Petition
stands disposed of accordingly.
