Learned counsel for the Electricity Department states that for redressal of such grievance of the petitioner, he has an efficacious remedy by approaching the Executive Engineer, under Clause 6.5 of the U.P. Electricity Supply Code, 2005. 6. Learned counsel for the petitioner could not dispute the same. 7. Under such circumstances, we provide that if the petitioner approaches the Executive Engineer of the Electricity Department and moves a representation along with a copy of the certified copy of this order, within a period of 15 days from today, the representation of the petitioner shall be considered and decided within a period of one month thereafter, after affording opportunity of hearing to the petitioner. 8.
