He is having agricultural lands in Velliyanai South Village. He is aggrieved by the proposed installation of transmission lines by the private respondents in the petition-mentioned cart track. The petitioner had already given representation dated 15.10.2025 in this regard. Admittedly, the transmission lines would not be running over the petitioner's land. 3. The learned counsel appearing for the private respondents asserts that permission had been obtained from the concerned authorities. I can grant writ of mandamus only if some illegality is demonstrated. The petitioner has not been able to show, as to how his right will be affected by the proposed installation. In any event, the first respondent is cognizant of the issue. It is for him to take a call in the matter.
