(Oral) C.M.No.3248 of 2011 C.M. application is allowed. Complete copy of Annexure P-4 is taken on record. Main Case. This Public Interest Litigation has been filed seeking interference of the Court with the decision taken by the respondents to exclude 6-8 years' old children from State and National Roller Skating Events. The petitioner in the PIL has stated that his son who belongs to the said age group is a keen enthusiast in skating events and he stands debarred from participating in such events by virtue of the decision taken by the respondents. C.W.P. No.22625 of 2010 -2- Even if we are to assume that the respondents are amenable to the writ jurisdiction of this Court, we are of the considered opinion that the present PIL ought not to be entertained in view of the subject-matter involved and also on account of the fact that the approach to the Court has not been preceeded by any demand to the respondents. We, therefore, refuse to entertain this PIL any further. However, the petitioner would be at liberty to approach the respondents for redressal of the grievances highlighted in the present writ petition. Public Interest Litigation stands disposed of in the above terms. ( RANJAN GOGOI ) CHIEF JUSTICE March 07, 2011 ( AUGUSTINE GEORGE MASIH ) poonam JUDGE
