Quick Summary

A landowner is seeking legal advice on how to remove an electricity transformer that was placed on their property by the Maharashtra State Electricity Board (MSEB) in 2001 without their explicit consent. The transformer was originally installed in 1971 for a high-tension line but was replaced with a low-tension line transformer after the business closed. The landowner wishes to have it removed and is exploring legal options, including sending a formal request and potentially filing a suit for mandatory injunction or a writ petition.

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?

File a Suit for Declaration and Mandatory Injunction in your local Civil Court for removal of High Tension Transformer or you can file a Writ Petition in High Court.
