He has pointed out that unless separate meters are fixed in each chamber only a minimum amount has to be collected from the Advocates, resulting in colossal loss of Revenue, since provision has been made for installations of Computers, Air-conditions etc. in each room as a result of which the consumption of energy would be more. He has also added that the installation of individual connection will ensure collection of electricity charges based on actual consumption whereas only a flat rate is now charged and that provision of individual meters will enable electricity consumption to be billed correctly avoiding any loss to Government. As such the Registrar, High Court, Madras has requested the Government to sanction a sum of Rs.60.00 lakhs so as to meet the expenditure relating to provision of individual electricity service connections for all 320 additional Law chambers constructed for Advocates in the High Court, Madras. 2.
