Thottathil B.Radhakrishnan, J.

Having considered the matter, we are in complete

agreement with the views of the learned Ombudsman.

Therefore, we hereby direct that the Travancore Devaswom

Board will act only in conformity with the findings of the learned

Ombudsman. The TDB, as a matter of fact, always plead non-

availability of funds. They have taken an insurance cover.

Beyond that, as stated by the learned Ombudsman, if the Board

wants to honour the request of the Government, it is up to the

Board to do so. But that shall not be done without prior approval

of this Court. This report is hence closed.
