EB service connection

Dear Client,
Your query lacks information and transparency to address it properly. However, be informed that the primary service providers under Tamil Nadu Electric Board(TNEB) are the Tamil Nadu Generation and Distribution Corporation Limited (TANGEDCO) and Tamil Nadu Transmission Corporation Limited (TANTRANSCO). You can apply for new TNEB connections through online portals, mobile apps, or offline visiting the regional TANGEDCO offices, To obtain the Tamil Nadu Electric Board connection, property documents like the sale deed, tax receipt, or court order proving legal ownership of the premises are required amongst other documents that include completion certificate issued by the building plan approving authority, declaration form as per TANGEDCO guidelines, address and identity proof of the applicant. So, to apply for EB connection, you have to submit property documents proving your ownership. As stated in the query, be informed that an individual gets the right to ancestral property by birth and accordingly, grandfather's property is ancestral in the hands of the grandchildren that include both grandson and granddaughter. Until and unless an undivided ancestral property is partitioned through a decree of partition passed by a Civil Court, a coparcener or legal heir cannot get his/her share in the said property and cannot transfer his/her share in the property without the consent of other legal heirs/ coparceners. In the given scenario, you can file a civil suit for a declaration under Section 34 of the Specific Relief Act, 1963 before the competent Civil Court read with Section 151 of CPC praying the Court to exercise its inherent power to do justice. Further, be informed that any registered deed or document can be challenged before a competent Court if it was obtained through fraud, misrepresentation, or undue influence. So, if you have any doubt about the transfer of grandfathers land was done fraudulently or under undue influence, you can challenge the said sale deed executed by the first son(deceased) by filing a civil suit before the competent Civil Court seeking cancellation of the said registered sale deed. The burden of proof is on the person who challenges the documents. Both under Article 58 and 59 of the Limitation Act, 1963, a suit for declaration and cancellation of a registered document is three years from the date the plaintiff gains knowledge of the fact behind the execution or registration of a document or the transaction. . However, the Hon'ble Supreme Court in the case of N. Thajudeen v. Tamil Nadu Khadi & Village Industries Board held that a suit for a declaration of title to immovable property would not be barred so long as the right to such a property continues and subsists. When such right continues to subsist, the relief for declaration would be a continuing right and there would be no limitation for such a suit. The principle is that the suit for a declaration for a right cannot be held to be barred so long as Right to Property subsist. Being a coparcener and legal heir of the said undivided ancestral property, you can file a civil suit for partition in the civil court to obtain your share in the said ancestral property. Hence, it is recommended to consult with an experienced property Lawyer for tailored advice and steps to understand your rights and remedies in the given situation to navigate the matter effectively.
