There will be a direction to the respondent not to prevent the petitioner from carrying 'thidambu' on the elephant during 'siveli ezhunellathu' during 'ulsav' period of the Chali Narayana Temple. We are not interfering with any other arrangements made by the Administrator for the time being since an appeal is already pending before the Sub Court, Cherthala. This interim direction is issued only considering the urgent nature of relief to be granted during the period of 'ulsav'. All the other contentions, if any, and relief to be sought for are left open and the parties may approach the Sub Court where the appeal is pending. The writ petition is closed. P.R.
