Heard Mr.I.Paranthaman, learned counsel appearing for the petitioners and Mr.Abdul Saleem, learned counsel for respondents 1 to 3 and Mr.N.Inbanathan, learned Additional Government Pleader, for the 4th respondent.
2.The prayer in these writ petitions is to issue a Writ of Mandamus directing respondents 1 to 5 to proceed the erection of 110KV DC Line and DC tower with panther conductor for making LILO of Hosur- Zuzuvadi-Bagalur 110KV feeder at proposed sevaganapalli 110/33KVSS approved by the 2nd respondent in memo No.CE/C/TR/SE/C11/TR/EEC/A3/F Profile/D862/18 dated 26.10.2018 through an alternative route as per the submission made by the petitioner to the 4th respondent at the time of enquiry on 27/09/2019 viz through the survey numbers 106, 108, 109, 106, 95,93,97,195, situated at Koosthanapalli village, Eachangur Village Panchayat, Hosur Taluk, Krishnagiri District.
3. The case of the petitioners is that the erection of 110KV DC Line and DC tower with panther conductor for making LILO of Hosur- 3/8 http://www.judis.nic.in W.P.Nos.29174, 29178, 29180, 29183 & 29184 of 2019 Zuzuvadi-Bagalur passes through the land of the petitioners and other land owners in their village. Since there is an alternate route available through Government land and situated at shorter distance, the petitioners gave representation on 27.09.2019 to the fourth respondent/District Collector, Krishnagiri to spare their lands and permit respondents 2 and 3 to erect the towers through the alternate route.
4. The learned counsel appearing for respondents 1 to 3 states that the matter for permitting respondents 2 and 3 to enter upon the land and erect towers is pending before the fourth respondent/District Collector for the past one month and the alternate route suggested by the petitioners and the sketch which is now annexed in the typed set of papers, were not furnished to the District Collector/4th respondent. Hence, there is a delay in disposal of the enter upon permission sought by respondents 2 and 3. If the route suggested by the petitioners is feasible and order is issued by the fourth respondent/District Collector, respondents 2 and 3 are ready to abide by this order.
5. The learned Additional Government Pleader appearing for the fourth respondent submits that if the writ petitioners herein produce the sketch to the District Collector and participate in the enquiry, the District Collector is ready to dispose of the representation and complete the enquiry 4/8 http://www.judis.nic.in W.P.Nos.29174, 29178, 29180, 29183 & 29184 of 2019 within a period of four weeks.
6. Recording the same, these writ petitions are disposed of with a direction to the writ petitioners herein to present the alternate route suggested by them to the fourth respondent/District Collector within a period of one week from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. Thereafter, the fourth respondent/District Collector shall consider the enter upon permission sought by the respondents 2 and 3 as well as the objections of the writ petitioners herein and pass appropriate orders, within a period of four weeks. No costs. Consequently, connected Miscellaneous Petitions are closed.
