JUDGEMENT

(1.) The present petition has been filed by the two petitioners claiming that they are espousing the public cause.

(2.) According to the petitioners, they are residents of Mahamandir Bagar and Mata Ka Than, Jodhpur. There is water supply facility for these areas constructed 4 years ago taking into consideration the population of the year 1991, which according to the petitioners has now multiplied by 21/2 times.

(3.) According to the petitioners the respondents are going to grant water connection to the respondent No. 7, a Hotel from the same source. If the water connection is granted to the Hotel from the same source then the Hotel being situated at a lower alignment would siphon away the major portion of the water and the other residents will be left high and dry. Though the Hotel is situated outside these localities but it has been claimed in the petition that the level of the Hotel is much lower than the level of these localities as claimed in the petition about 100 feet as mentioned in Annex. 2.
