Perusal of the file shows that on 26.12.2025 also,
defendant was directed to restore the electricity connection in the
shop of the plaintiff forthwith.
At this stage, Ld. Counsel for the defendant submits
that the plaintiffs have not paid the electricity charges since the
inception of tenancy, i.e. August, 2023 and he acknowledges that
the defendant has not filed any case against the plaintiff for
claiming the said amount. He further submits that defendant is
paying the electricity charges for the tenanted premises every
month. He further submits that in the WS, defendant has claimed
that rent of the tenanted premises is Rs.15,000/- (which is
exclusive of Rs.2,000/- as electricity charges).
At this stage, Ld. Counsel for the plaintiff submits
that the rent amount of Rs.15,000/- is inclusive of electricity
charges and that is why alleged amount of Rs.2,000/- for electricity
has not been mentioned in the above-said legal demand notice.
Be that as it may, defendant is directed to appear
physically on the NDOH and he is also directed to restore the
electricity connection forthwith in the shop of the plaintiff i.e.
Shop bearing no. 1533, Shiv Ashram, S.P. Mukherjee Marg,
Behind Novelty Fire Station, Delhi. This interim relief shall
remain in force till the NDOH.
List the matter on date already fixed i.e. on
21.05.2026.
Let copy of this order be given dasti to both the
parties against acknowledgment.
