It has been submitted by Sri V.T.M. Prasad, learned Advocate appearing for the respondents that possession of the land in question has already been taken over by the Devasthanam. Learned Advocate appearing for the appellants has however submitted that some of the appellants had cultivated the land in question and they would like to harvest the crop. Looking to the peculiar facts of the case, it is directed that though possession of the land in question may not be handed over to the appellants, the respondent-Devasthanam shall permit the appellants to harvest the crop under the supervision of the representatives of the respondent-Devasthanam till 20-7-2008. Subject to the above observation, all the appeals stand disposed of with no order as to costs. __________________________ ANIL R. DAVE, CJ 20th June, 2008 __________________________ R.
