27. A learned single judge of this court, Syed Shah Mohd. Quadri J. has held in Texmaco Ltd. [Cement Division] v. A.P. State Electricity Board [W.P. No. 12059/90 - 22-8-90] that section 22 "is not applicable to a case where a facility is threatened to be disconnected for non-payment of charges for the service". The learned single judge observed :
"No action is being taken for the recovery of those arrears by initiating winding-up proceedings or proceedings for execution, distress and the like or by initiating proceedings for appointment of a receiver. Only the supply of electricity is threatened to be disconnected for non-payment of arrears" and "section 22 has no application". We respectfully agree with the said view of Quadri J.
