Summary: The court dismissed the petitioner's writ petition seeking an electricity connection to his premises. CESC Ltd. refused the connection citing a prior court order and the fact that the premises are constructed on East Kolkata Wetlands without proper authorization from authorities. The court upheld this refusal, finding no legal right to the connection given the environmental embargo and serious concerns about supplying electricity to properties in the protected wetlands area, though it granted liberty to approach CESC Ltd. if new facts emerge. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
