W.P.(C).23221/2011 .............................................. Dated this the 19th day of October, 2011 JUDGMENT Petitioner approached this Court aggrieved by Exts.P2 and P3, the orders issued by the second respondent concerning the use of mikes in their Mosque. By Ext.P2, the Sub Divisional Magistrate required the petitioner to discontinue the use of mike and by Ext.P3 the Circle Inspector of Police was asked to recall the mike sanction granted to the petitioner. On 29.8.2011, after hearing both sides, this Court passed and order and the matter is now coming for final hearing. 2. The controversy is between the petitioner and the fifth respondent, insofar as the use of mikes for Magrib prayer in the Masjids. Both sides submit that the controversy arose during the Ramzan season and now that the season is over, the said controversy no longer continues. In that view of the matter, there is no necessity to continue Exts.P2 and P3 and therefore, these orders will stand recalled. However, it is clarified that in future also in case any breach of case arises consequent on the use of mikes in the Mosques of the petitioner and the fifth respondent, it W.P.(C).23221/2011 2 will be open to either of the parties to move the Revenue Divisional Officer and it will be open to the Revenue Divisional Officer to pass such orders as are warranted to maintain the law and order situation in the area. Writ petition is disposed of as above. ANTONY DOMINIC, Judge mrcs
