1. Heard Shri Umesh Kumar Srivastava, learned Counsel for the petitioner, Shri Amarjeet Singh Rakhra, learned Counsel for the opposite party No.3 and learned Standing Counsel for the State-opposite parties.
2. Cause of action, if any, for preferring this writ petition has arisen outside the jurisdiction of this Court at Lucknow. Merely making a representation to the Chairman of the Electricity Corporation will not give territorial jurisdiction especially as the representation is not a statutory one. The petitioner may, therefore, file a petition, if otherwise, maintainable before this Court at Allahabad.
3. With the aforesaid observations, the writ petition is disposed of. (Om Prakash Shukla, J.) (Rajan Roy, J.) Order Date :- 3.3.2025 -Piyush- Digitally signed by :- PIYUSH YADAV High Court of Judicature at Allahabad, Lucknow Bench
