Plaintiff-respondents instituted a suit for permanent and mandatory injunction in the trial court against the defendants along-with the application for temporary injunction, which was allowed and the defendant- petitioners were restrained from interfering in performance of 'Puja' etc. in the temple. The defendants preferred an appeal, which was also dismissed by the appellate court vide order dated 27th July, 2004, and the order of the trial court dated 20th November, 2002, was upheld.

The order of status-quo is going on for last more than three-and-half-year, therefore, without going into merits and demerits of the case, I direct the trial court to decide the suit itself expeditiously preferably within a period of one year from today and till the decision of the suit the interim order passed by this Court dated 14th // 2 // September, 2004 shall remain in force. Consequently, the writ petition is disposed of in the manner as directed above. There will be no order as to costs.
