THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE RAMESH RANGANATHAN WRIT PETITION Nos.28062 AND 28713 OF 2011 COMMON ORDER: Both W.P.Nos.28062 and 28713 of 2011 are connected and, as such, are being disposed of by a common order. W.P.No.28062 of 2011 is filed by the Arya, Gowda, Ediga Association to declare the action of respondent Nos.1 to 3 in not taking action against respondent Nos.6 to 13, and in not restoring possession of the Koundinya Gowda Satram, as illegal and arbitrary. The relief sought for in W.P.No.28713 of 2011 is to declare the action of respondent Nos.2 and 3 in interfering with the day-to-day affairs of the Arya Gowda Ediga Association; in calling the petitioners (three in number) to the police station without any complaint or case being registered against them; and in threatening to implicate them in false criminal cases at the behest of the unofficial respondents; as illegal and unconstitutional. The dispute in these two Writ Petitions relates to a choultry constructed on plot No.8 of Srisailam Devasthanam, Srisailam, Kurnool District. It is evident that two groups are fighting for custody of the said choultry. It is wholly unnecessary for this Court to go into this controversy in as much as both of them complain either of inaction by the police officials, or of their interference in the day – to – day affairs of the said choultry. Learned Government Pleader for Home submits that, based on the complaint filed by the petitioner in W.P.No.28062 of 2011, Crime No.63 of 2011 was registered on 15.10.2011 on the file of Srisailam Police Station, and the matter is under investigation. With regards the allegation made by the petitioners in W.P.No.28713 of 2011, it is stated that respondent Nos.2 and 3 were not interfering with the day – to – day affairs of the choultry. It is stated that a case in Crime No.61 of 2011 dated 25.09.2011 has been registered at Srisailam Police Station against respondent Nos.4 to 7, and that the matter is under investigation. Since the petitioners in both these Writ Petitions have filed complaints against each other; both the complaints have been registered; and the matter is under investigation; the cause in the Writ Petitions do not necessitate any further adjudication. The civil disputes between the petitioners inter se, and the relief sought for by the petitioners in W.P.No.28713 of 2011 against respondent Nos.4 to 7, can only be adjudicated in appropriate proceedings either under the Endowments Act, or before the competent Civil Court, as the case may be. Since the cause in both these Writ Petitions does not survive, and the Writ Petitions have become infructuous, they are dismissed as such. However, in the circumstances, without costs. _____________________________ RAMESH RANGANATHAN, J November 01, 2011 MD THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE RAMESH RANGANATHAN WRIT PETITION Nos.28062 AND 28713 OF 2011 November 01, 2011 MD
