The learned Judge, in fact, granted relief to the petitioners as prayed for and accordingly, directed the respondents herein to take appropriate steps whenever genuine complaints are received from any victims belonging to the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes, but not to be influenced by provocative and outrageous allegations made by any individuals including the petitioners 1 and 2. The learned Judge, based on the material available on record, appears to have expressed the view that in a country governed by rule of law and Constitutionalism, there is no place for making any provocative and outrageous allegations by any individuals against other individuals or communities. Such discourse would be detriment to the growth and development of democratic institutions and norms. We, accordingly, direct the respondents herein to consider the representations, if any, made not only by the petitioners 1 and 2 but any other individuals expressing any genuine grievance entertained by the victims belonging to the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes. The observations, if any, made in the order passed by the learned Judge against petitioners 1 and 2, obviously, were never intended to cause any damage to the reputation of the petitioners. The observations shall not be construed in such manner not only by the respondents but also by any other persons or institutions as those observations are never intended to adversely affect the interests of the petitioners 1 and 2. With the clarification as above, the Writ Appeal is disposed of. ___________________________ B. SUDERSHAN REDDY, J. Date:07.03.2005. __________________ C.V. RAMULU, J.
