The petitioner is aggrieved by the incorrect demand raised by the respondent no.3-Executive Engineer, Electricity Distribution Division, Machhlilshahar, Jaunpur by order dated 19.08.2025 in respect of electricity connection of petitioner. 3.

It is contended that while passing the impugned order, the petitioner was not afforded any opportunity of hearing. 4. Learned counsel for the respondents submits that the order has been passed in compliance of the judgement of this Court in Writ-C No.22749 of 2025, and there is no illegality in the impugned order. 5.
