NARAYANAN THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 16/02/2011, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: sts P.R.RAMACHANDRA MENON, J. ------------------------- W.P (C) No.39788 of 2003 -------------------------- Dated this the 16th February, 2011 J U D G M E N T The writ petition filed by the petitioner in the year 2003 involves the dispute mainly as to whether the 'Qutuba prayers' are to be offered in Arabic or in Malayalam. Placing reliance on the verdicts passed by the Civil Court and this Court, it is stated that the same has to be in Arabic and not in Malayalam. It is stated that, in view of the threat to the 'law and order' situation, police protection has already been ordered by this Court. The prayer in the writ petition is to direct the concerned respondent to pass final orders on Ext.P4 report and Ext.P5 notice with regard to the meeting scheduled on 5.11.2003. 2. Going by the facts and circumstances as pleaded in the writ petition, it appears that the cause of action, particularly with regard to the apprehension as to the law and order situation of the year 2003 has become stale. As such, this Court does not find it necessary to admit the writ petition as on this day. W.P (C) No.38788 of 2003 2 In the circumstances, this writ petition is disposed of without prejudice to the rights and liberties of the parties concerned to move for appropriate relief /remedy as and when necessitated.
