Petitioners grievance is that respondents are proposing to install a transformer in the tarred road frontage of the petitioners property having an extent of 21.399 cents of land. Ext.P1 is the sketch of the petitioners property. According to the petitioners, coming to know of the above proposal of the respondents, they filed Ext.P3 objection to the 1st respondent. Inspite of it, when steps were taken for installing the transformer, they filed this writ petition to prevent the respondents from proceeding with the proposal.
