Sir, In the year 1971 we had purchased a piece of land to construct a cold storage ,after converting the land non agriculture we applied for high tension electricity line to Maharashtra state electricity Board (M.S.E.B.).They had Given permission for H.T.Line and asked us to purchase our own transformer. We purchased the same and then M.S.E.B.installed the same in our own premises and the electricity supply was begun.
In the year 2001 we wind up our business and applied to cancel the high tension line .M.S.E.B. cancelled the high tension line and provided us a low tension line and put their own transformer on the same place in our premises without our consent.
Now we want to shift the transformer from our premises.What should we can do legally.Please suggest.
Thanks.

You can first issue a request letter requesting the electricity board authorities to remove the transformer lying in your premises.
If they do not listen or reluctant to remove it then you can file a suit for mandatory injunction seeking court direction to remove the same from your property

After the year 2001, the MSEB installed a transformer in your place then why did you keep silent all these years?
