THOTTATHIL B.RADHAKRISHNAN, J. ------------------------------------------- O.P.No.16926 OF 1999 ------------------------------------------- Dated this the 17th day of September, 2007 JUDGMENT Petitioner claims to be the son of one of the life members of a committee constituted as per a document dated 12.5.1950 for the purpose of establishing a U.P. school. He alleged that after the demise of the founder members, there is gross mis- management. He, accordingly, requested that he may be appointed as the Manager. That request stands rejected by the impugned Ext.P2 by stating clear and cogent reasons. The Government had also rejected the claim of the petitioner as per Ext.P4. I find no legal infirmity or jurisdictional error in the impugned decisions. The writ petition fails. The same is accordingly dismissed. No costs.
