HON’BLE Dr. JUSTICE G. YETHIRAJULU W.P.No.10789 of 1998 Dated this the 13th day of February, 2008 Between: Sri Thalupulammavari Devasthanam Nayee Brahmana Sangam, Lovakothuru, Rep.by its President … Petitioners AND Polaneti Seshagiri Rao and another …. Respondents HON’BLE Dr. JUSTICE G. YETHIRAJULU W.P.No.10789 of 1998 ORDER: This Writ Petition has been filed seeking to declare that the action of the first respondent-Chairman of the Trust Board in seeking to induct the barbers of Rajapet village into Sri Thalupalammavari Devasthanam of Lovakothuru for kesakandana work, as illegal, arbitrary and mala fide. 2) The writ petitioner, which is a Thalupulammavari Devasthanam Nayee Brahmana Sangam, contended that the members of the Sangam are recognized barbers for kesakandana work at the temple premises and they are performing their duties as such. The first respondent has openly proclaimed that on festival occasions he would bring other barbers from neighbouring village i.e. Rajapet with a view to meet the work load, and to that effect, the second respondent-Assistant Commissioner of Endowments has issued certain instructions. 3) Neither the first respondent nor the second respondent has issued any written orders to the effect that they would bring the barbers of neighbouring village to get kesakanda work done on festival occasions. There are no instances that the other villagers have come to the temple to perform the duties that are supposed to be performed by the petitioner-Sangam. Since the petitioner-Sangam has approached this Court only on the apprehension that the respondents are likely to bring other barbers from neighbouring village for kesakanda work, the writ petition is premature and therefore, it is liable to be dismissed. 4) Accordingly, the Writ Petition is dismissed. However, if the respondents pass any orders allowing other barbers of neighouring village to perform the keshakanda work, the petitioner-Sangam is at liberty to challenge the same. No order as to costs. __________________ Dr.G. YETHIRAJULU, J Date: 13.02.2008 Isn
