JUDGMENT : R. SURESH KUMAR, J. 1. The prayer sought for in this writ petition is for a Writ of Mandamus directing the respondent authorities to grant permission to conduct the cultural programme and police protection on 04.01.2018 in Sri Mariamman Festival at Kokanarayanapetai Village and post Kauarapalayam Taluk, Namakkal District by considering the representation of the petitioner dated 23.12.2017. 2. I have heard Mr. R.R. Rameshraja, learned counsel for the petitioner and Mr. S. Babu, learned Government Advocate who after having taken notice appeared on behalf of the respondent. By consent of both sides, the main writ petition itself is taken up for disposal on the admission stage. 3. The petitioner claimed to be the President of the orgainzing committee for the temple festival, and as a part of the festival, he claimed that, on 04.01.2018, they have fixed for a cultural program (dance program-in Tamil it is called as Aadal Padal Nigazchi). He seems to have approached the respondent police by filing a representation on 23.12.2017 to the respondent seeking permission to conduct cultural programme on 04.01.2018 on the eve of the temple festival. Since the said representation has not been considered and no permission so far has been given, the petitioner has approached this court with the aforesaid prayer. 4. On perusal of the copy of the petitioner's representation dated 30.12.2017, it discloses that, the temple festival would start on 04.01.2018 and in this regard, the villagers have decided to conduct a cultural program between 8 p.m., to 11 p.m. and for the said program, he seeks for permission and bandobast from the second respondent police. 5. Apart from the copy of the representation dated 23.12.2017, no other document has been filed by the petitioner with regard to the temple festival or the program fixed by the village people or the organizing committee to have program on various dates commencing from 04.01.2018. Moreover, this writ petition has been filed by an individual, who claimed to be the President of the organizing committee. Who constituted the organizing committee either by the village people in a whole or by majority of the people. Whether the Committee said to have been constituted or formed, for performing the temple festival, has been recognized or approved by the village people or by the temple authorities, is not known. 6. Be that as it may. Who constituted the organizing committee either by the village people in a whole or by majority of the people. Whether the Committee said to have been constituted or formed, for performing the temple festival, has been recognized or approved by the village people or by the temple authorities, is not known. 6. Be that as it may. Whenever a temple festival is performed in the village, usually a cultural program would be organized to mark such festival. Such cultural programs may be in the form of drama or dance or speeches etc. Insofar as conducting these programs not in violation of the law which is in force nor if it is performed or conducted in a peaceful manner without giving any room for any likelyhood of deterioration of law and order situation in the village or in the locality concerned, there can be no impediment under the law, which is in force, to give such permission to organizers. 7. In this context, the learned counsel appearing for the petitioner produced a copy of the order passed by the learned Judge of this Court in similar circumstances in Crl. O.P. No. 28310 of 2017 by an order dated 19.12.217. For easy reference, the relevant portion of the said order is extracted hereunder: (a) The cultural programme in connection with in the event of Cultural Program (Adal Padal) at Appakudal, Gandhi Street Arulmigu Sree Omkaliamman Temple Festival at Bhavani Taluk, Erode District on 12.01.2018 between 06.00 p.m. and 11.00 p.m. (b) There should not be any kind of obscene dance or vulgar dialogues during the performance, by anyone of the participants.
