The writ petition is filed with the following prayer: “Issue a writ of mandamus or any other appropriate writ, order or direction, commanding the respondents 1, 2 and 3 to render adequate protection to the institution, infrastructure staff and students of the college represented by the petitioner for its smooth functioning and without interruption from anybody from the campus or from any other political or anti-social elements outside the campus.” 2. When the writ petition came up before us after notice to the parties, we had directed the District Legal Services Authority, Pathanamthitta to intervene in the matter and take steps for the smooth functioning of the educational institution conducting various courses including M.B.A., B.Tech etc. 3. It is seen from the report that the District Legal Services Authority has taken effective steps and apparently, now there is peaceful atmosphere in the institution. W.P(C)No.25455 of 2009 :: 2 :: 4. In view of the above, learned counsel for the petitioner submits that no further orders are required. Therefore, the writ petition is disposed of making it clear that as and when a request is made by the petitioner, the police shall see that adequate and effective protection is afforded for the peaceful and orderly conduct of the educational institution. There shall be no interference of the outsiders. We record our appreciation for the service rendered by Sri.Satheenathan, Chairman, District Legal Services Authority, Pathanamthitta.
