Counsel for the petitioner submitted that even though measurement was fixed some time in August 2004, the second respondent did not follow up the matter. In the circumstances, W.P. is disposed of directing the second respondent to survey the temple property and demarcate boundaries after identifying the property of the temple which is assigned to it by the Government in 1996. Survey should be conducted after notice to the temple officials and to the neighbouring owners and survey report should be submitted to it within a period of two months from the date of production of a copy of this judgment by the petitioner.
