Order Thottathil B.Radhakrishnan, J. This DBA is filed seeking permission to incur expenditure in connection with the improvement of the Malikappuram Nadappanthal. We think that the matter requires a second look by the Board itself. The need for the work has to be evaluated once more. The requirement to do the work as suggested now, has also to be reconsidered. The impact of suggestions that may come in relation to the master plan and the management of crowd in Sannidhanam may also be relevant to decide this issue. Hence, we refuse to grant permission now and leave it to the Board to reconsider the matter and apply for sanction, if and when it decides to do so. We may also indicate that the DBA44/10 -: 2 :- estimate appears to contain duplications at least in relation to some of the items. Closed. Sd/- Thottathil B.Radhakrishnan, Judge.
