Judgment Thottathil B.Radhakrishnan, J. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Government Pleader. Sree Siva Kumareswara Kshethram, Edathirinji, Thrissur district is due to have its annual festival, going by Ext.P3 and Ext.P1.The writ petition ordered accordingly. Even during the previous order, there was a writ petition which led to Ext.P2 judgment. Even at that time, this Court had recorded the submission of the learned Government Pleader that police force would be made available for the purpose of maintaining WPC4032/11 -: 2 :- law and order. That was recorded and there was a direction to ensure that sufficient police force is made available. We do not find why the petitioner should make it an annual occasion to come to this Court to seek directions when they may need relief for police protection simply on a surmise. We say this because the writ petition does not contain any allegation that after Ext.P2, the police had not appropriately maintained law and order. However, it is stated that certain crimes were registered in relation to certain offences. That only shows that the police were vigilant. We also find that Ext.P3 representation is made only on 3.2.2011, that too, making reference to certain issues of assault etc. which occurred during the previous year. Under such circumstances, we direct that the respondents will take care of law and order in relation to the annual festival of the temple and provide support to ensure that law and order is maintained even if repeated directions are not WPC4032/11 -: 3 :- obtained by the petitioner every year. The writ petition ordered accordingly. Thottathil B.Radhakrishnan, Judge. P.S.Gopinathan, Judge. Sha/1002
