Sections 23 and 53 of the Electricity Act 1910 oppose the notice of the West Pakistan Water and Power Development Authority Act (XXXI of 1958), Section 12 petitioner to pay installation charges for connection of electricity to his mill. And it claims that it paid two bucks in that regard. Arguing that the original estimate is 500kW while the applicant has got a connection of 1600kW and accordingly the estimate was made and the charges against Wapda, being a public official, were factual. It would not matter if a wrong personality was mentioned in the previous estimate. But if WAPDA received the same amount of money that the applicant had sought for 1600 kW, the unanticipated demand could not be sustained, if it was based on revision of the petitioner's rates, in any case on that amount. Wapda was remanded for directing the applicants to disclose the tariffs of charges, which was entitled to review reasons, unwanted notices were declared and no legal effect. The revised Demand Notice was issued and they should also explain how the affected persons have been acted upon. immigration advocates email from Bhara Kahu lawyer
