Appeal filed was rejected by Ext.P3 order. The contention raised before this Court is that the stage fell down and that the microphone provided was not working. 2. Learned Government Pleader has obtained instructions in the matter. According to the learned Government Pleader, if at all the petitioner had such a complaint, petitioner should have first raised the issue before the Stage Manager and that the same was not done. It is stated that therefore, the complaint now raised is without any merit. 3. First of all, the only ground which is seen as urged by the petitioner before the appellate authority is regarding the improper functioning of the microphone. That has been found to be incorrect. Apart from raising the allegations, petitioner has not produced anything to W.P (C) No. 2035 of 2011 2 substantiate the contentions raised by the petitioner. In such circumstances, this Court will not be justified in accepting the unsubstantiated plea now raised in this writ petition. Writ petition fails and it is accordingly dismissed.
