We find that the prayer made in the original petition is for a direction to the Cochin Devaswom Board to entrust the charge of Thrissur Pooram to an officer of the Cochin Devaswom Board. This petition was filed in the year 1998. In that year the pooram was scheduled to be held on 05/05/1998. More than 9 years have elapsed. We do not think that the grievance of the petitioner still remains to be redressed. At any rate this petition filed in respect of that year has become infructuous. If the grievance of the petitioner is subsisting, it is open to the petitioner to approach this court by filing another writ petition. (P.R.RAMAN, JUDGE) (V.K.MOHANAN, JUDGE) sv.
