This is a writ petition seeking police protection for the life and property of the petitioner. It is alleged that a rival Cable T.V. operators are preventing his workers from doing their work. Though a complaint was preferred to the police as per Ext.P5, they did not take any action on the same. 2. The learned Government Pleader, on instruction, submits that the petitioner and respondents 2 and 3 were called by the police to the police station and asked them to abide by the orders passed by the Munsiff Court. According to him, in the meeting held in the presence of the District Collector dated 27.9.2006 some decisions had been taken prescribing the guidelines for the rival Cable TV operators to work in the respective fields. As such, we do not think that there is any threat at present as alleged in the writ petition. In the circumstances, we close this matter. In case there is any threat in future, it is open to the petitioner to seek redressal of his grievance at that time. P.R. RAMAN, (JUDGE) K. HEMA, (JUDGE) knc/-
