ORDER : M. Sundar, J. This matter pertains to alleged attempts by the seventh respondent (private respondent) to re-commence/run a cinema theatre in the name style of ‘Gokulam Cinema Theatre’ in Alandurai Village, Coimbatore District. 2. It is the case of the writ petitioner that a cinema theatre in fact was running at the same venue earlier but was shut down and converted into a departmental store by the seventh respondent. 3. The writ petitioner submits that if the seventh respondent re-commences the same theatre in the same place, it is not in the interest of larger community of the village. 4. In the light of the prayer (as abridged/restricted by the writ petitioner in the hearing), we express no opinion on the averments made by the writ petitioner. 5. The learned counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioner submits at the time of hearing that he abridges/restricts the prayer and it would suffice if the first respondent/District Collector, Coimbatore is directed to dispose of the representation given by the petitioner being representation dated 19th January 2017. 6.
