Tamil Nadu Electricity Board [TNEB] — Earning using free agriculture electricity

Address:

Cuddalore

I am living in Cuddalore where I have nearly 1 acre of agriculture land. Me and my neighbors are doing groundnut cultivation. I don't have free agriculture service provided by Tamilnadu government. Hence we need to depend on the water supply provided by neighbors.

We have a person who has 2 bore well with motor supply and it is using free agriculture service provided by tamilnadu government. He is giving the water supply for rental but he is asking for Rs. 150/hour which is really very high to manage. For a 3 month groundnut cultivation we need to pay nearly Rs. 6000/season.

This person is earning a lot with the help of free agricultural service provided by tamilnadu government. Is this legally allowed?

We need to depend on this man's water since his water is good for crops and we don't have any other options for water so if we legally give complaint next time he won't give water for crops and so we cant do farming.

How to take this further is really confusing.
