ORDER
Thottathil B. Radhakrishnan, J,
Following a complaint of the Temple Advisory
Committee of Thaliyil Sree Mahadeva Temple, the learned
Ombudsman has filed a report. The specific complaint was
regarding the lack of repairs to the roofing and other
portions of the temple and also that a portion of the copper
roof of the Sreekovil had fallen down and rain water leaks
into the sanctum sanctorum, even making it difficult for the
Melsanthi to do the poojas. The complaint was filed
because no action followed inspite of the fact that the
Temple Advisory Committee had made a complaint to the
competent authorities to do the needful. It is still
unfortunate that the Devaswom Commissioner and the Chief
Engineer did not respond to the needs of the temple in
question.
DBP. 66/2010. 2
In this view of the matter, we direct the TDB, the
Devaswom Commissioner, the Chief Engineer and the
Assistant Engineer, Kottayam to ensure that all repair works
of Thaliyil Sree Mahadeva Temple as required shall be
completed within a period of six months without fail and a
report shall be filed before the learned Ombudsman
regarding the completion of that work.
DBP is ordered accordingly. Communicate a copy
of this order to the learned Ombudsman. Issue copy to
counsel for all parties.
Thottathil B. Radhakrishnan,
Judge
