The two orders came to be challenged in the present writ application and vide order dated 4.12.1995 petitioners were allowed to manage the affairs of the trust with a rider not to dispose of any property. Much water must have flown from 1993 till 2008, the dispute therefore has lost its significance. The two - 2 - impugned orders contained in annexures 1 and 2 are therefore quashed. This writ application is disposed of with a direction upon the respondents Bihar State Religious Trust Board that in case circumstances of the kind still exist and they are of the opinion that there is need to exercise power under the Act, they may do so afresh, if so advised. This writ application stands disposed of with the above observation. RPS (Ajay Kumar Tripathi,J.)
