ORDER (Order of the Court was made by S.M.Subramaniam J.) The writ of mandamus has been instituted to direct the respondents 5 and 6 to follow Anthropology Survey of India book published in 1994 by the K.S.Singh “The People of India” series, regarding the petitioner's Panniandi culture, and to take action on Letter No. Naa. Kaa. 8488/2023/Ko3 dated April 10, 2023, for the issuance of Panniandi SC certificates in Karimangalam and Palacode Taluks. 2. The omnibus prayer sought in the writ petition by a Sangam registered under the Societies Registration Act is not entertainable. The issuance of a community certificate relates to an individual who belongs to a particular community. An aggrieved person alone may file an application seeking the issuance of a community certificate. A Sangam cannot seek a general prayer directing the respondents to follow a particular course of action. 3. It is needless to state that the competent authorities are bound to follow the procedures as well as the law in force for the issuance of community certificates. 4. With these observations, the writ petition stands disposed of. No costs.
