1. One J. Boopalan, the petitioner herein, is residing at No. 15, Pillaiyar Koil Street, Pallavaram Cantonment, Madras-43, falling within the territorial jurisdiction of Pallavaram Police Station, to which the respondent herein is attached as Inspector of Police. He claims to have to his credit the following appellations, namely (1) Trade Union Leader; (2) Social Worker; and (3) Councillor of St. Thomas Mount-cum-Pallavaram Cantonment Board.
2. To his shock and dismay, he would say, he found his named displayed in the notice board of the respondent Police Station on 9-11-1990 in Serial No. 2 in the list of rowdies. The petitioner, invoking in inherent jurisdiction of this Court under section 482, Cr.P.C. came forward with the present action seeking for a direction for the removal of his name from the list of rowdies contending that such a display offends his fundamental right guaranteed under Articles 19 and 21 of the Constitution of India and that such inclusion, without his having been given any opportunity, offends principles of natural justice.
