Basanta Kumar Pradhan Vs the Ceo, Tpcodl

The grievance of the Petitioners is that though the deceased, Bhanuprava Pradhan, who happens to be the only bread earner of the family member of the Petitioners died in electrocution due to negligence of the opposite parties-power distribution company, but they have not been paid compensation in spite of the representation made, vide Annexure-5. Hence, they have filed this writ petition seeking a writ of mandamus directing the opposite parties to pay the compensation.

During the course of hearing, learned counsel for the Petitioners submits that it would suffice if opposite party no.1 is directed to consider the aforesaid representation made in this regard and pass necessary order on the same.
