Quick Summary: Indrawati Devi took BSES Yamuna Power to court over an electricity connection for her property in Central Delhi. The court ruled in her favor, allowing her to apply again for the connection without needing a No Objection Certificate (NOC).
On December 24, 2025, the High Court of Delhi, with Justice Mini Pushkarna in charge, heard a case involving Indrawati Devi. She wanted BSES Yamuna Power to provide electricity to her property at T-661/A-2, Third Floor, Gali No. 21, Hanuman Mandir, Baljeet Nagar, Central Delhi. Her previous application had expired, leading her to seek legal help.
Indrawati's lawyer mentioned a decision from November 13, 2025, which said that no NOC from the Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) was needed, even if the building was not officially approved. This was a big win for Indrawati, as it meant she could get electricity without extra paperwork.
BSES Yamuna Power's lawyer agreed to give a new connection, as long as Indrawati applied again and completed all necessary steps. They explained that her previous application was canceled simply because too much time had passed.
Justice Mini Pushkarna explained the steps Indrawati needed to take: - Apply Again: Indrawati must submit a new application within a week. - Complete Formalities: She must follow all steps set by BSES. - Timely Connection: BSES should provide the connection within four weeks of receiving her application. - Pay Dues: Indrawati must keep up with her electricity payments.
The court pointed out the dangers of using electricity without permission, which can lead to stealing and safety risks. They noted that while buildings not officially approved can get electricity, companies must cut it off if MCD takes action against such buildings.
With these clear directions, the court ended the case, allowing Indrawati a fresh start in getting electricity for her property.
