                        J U D G M E N T

Petitioner seeks a direction to the respondents to

disburse the contract amount due to him in relation to a

contract which he had executed with the Electricity Board

involving construction of the approach road to Anathodu

Dam. Electricity Board has filed a counter affidavit

contending that there is a higher amount due from the

petitioner for the the loss sustained by the Board for re-

arranging another work which was originally entrusted to

the petitioner but which was subsequently cancelled at his

own risk and cost. What is involved is a claim and counter

claim by the parties to a contract. In these circumstances,

remedy of the petitioner is before the Civil Court.

Reserving the right of the petitioner to approach the Civil

Court, the writ petition is closed.
