It is the case of the petitioner that he is residing in the above said address along with his family and that, they are using only hurricane lamp for their day today activities and spending most of the time in darkness. Hence, he gave a representation dated 26.12.2016 to the respondents, along with all the necessary documents to provide electricity service connection for his house. Pursuant to the same, permission was granted on 02.01.2017 and the petitioner has paid necessary charges as demanded by the second respondent. However, on 08.03.2017, the second respondent has insisted the petitioner to get no objection certificate from the third respondent, who is claiming right over the common pathway, through which, service connection has to be given. It was further informed to the petitioner that the third respondent has already given objection for granting electricity service connection to the petitioner, as he has filed a suit in O.S.No.145 of 2015 before the learned District Munsif, Dharapuram seeking for declaration and for mandatory injunction, which is pending. Hence, the petitioner has approached this Court with the above writ petition for the above stated relief. 3. The third respondent filed a counter affidavit, wherein, it is stated that he has filed a suit in O.s.No.145 of 2015 before the District Munsif Court, Dharapuram for declaration and for mandatory injunction and the petitioner has encroached his pathway and that, the petitioner has no right over the said pathway in any manner whatsoever. 4. The respondents 1 and 2 have also filed a counter affidavit to the effect that the electricity line to the house of the petitioner, cannot be erected, without the consent of the third respondent. 5. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner, learned Standing Counsel for the respondents 1 and 2 and the learned counsel for the third respondent. 6.
