Having heard the learned counsel for the petitioner as well as the learned counsel appearing for the second respondent-temple, and the learned Government Pleader for Endowments appearing for the first respondent, without expressing any opinion on merits as to the claim made by the petitioner, the writ petition is disposed of with a direction to the respondents not to interfere with the possession of the petitioner in respect of the land in question without following due process of law. No costs. _______________ 09.07.2008 VGB
