M.N.KRISHNAN, J ===================== W.P.(C) No. 30432 OF 2007 ===================== Dated this the 19th day of October 2007 JUDGMENT This writ petition is filed for a direction to the I Addl.District Court, Kollam to appoint an officer of the court to supervise the Oachira Parabrahma Kshetra Bharana Samithy in connection with the preparation, arrangements, sale of stalls at Padanilam and other activities relating to the ensuing Vrishchikotsavam commencing from 17.11.1007. 2. Heard the counsel for the petitioners, the plaintiff and defendants 1, 2 and 4. After heated arguments, this court suggested various means as an interim measure so that unnecessary hardship can be averted to all and function can be performed smoothly and religiously in the way which is expected to be celebrated. The counsel for both sides co-operated and agreed for the suggestion that Sri.N.Sadanandan, who is appointed as a Chief Returning Officer, a former District Judge be requested to supervise the conduct of the auction to be conducted and if any deficiency or anomaly is pointed out, he may take a decision and settle it and therefore the stalls can be auctioned and the auction result can be finalised and the WP(C)30432/2007 -:2:- successful bidder or tenderer be able to put the stall sufficiently well in advance so as to avoid difficulties to the public, who visit the place. I earnestly and sincerely hope that all concerned will co-operate at least in the name of God to have a smooth conduct of the festival and avoid unnecessary embarrassment to the administration as well as to the system. Writ petition is disposed of as above. M.N.KRISHNAN, JUDGE Cdp/-
