3.to conduct dance programme on the same day, viz., 02.02.2014.
2b. It is further submitted that in order to celebrate petitioner Sangam's first anniversary, it has decided to conduct conference on 02.02.2014 at Veppadai, Tiruchengode Taluk, Namakkal District and approached the respondents by submitting a representation dated 28.11.2013, seeking permission for making vide publicity by way of putting up flex board and through mike set all over Namakkal, Karur, Erode, Salem and Coimbatore Districts from 26.01.2014 to 02.02.2014 and also for conducting dance programme on the said date. Since no decision has been taken on its representation, the petitioner Sangam, finding no other alternative and efficacious remedy than to approach this Court, invoked the extraordinary jurisdiction of this Court under Article 226 of the Constitution of India.
5. On the other hand, Mr.P.Sanjai Gandhi, learned Additional Government Pleader, while strongly objecting to the relief sought for by the petitioner in the writ petition, vehemently contended that if the petitioner's Sangam is granted permission to conduct conference and dance programme, the cadres of petitioner Sangam will definitely indulge in such activities prejudicial to the interest of the public peace and tranquillity, since particular community people from various towns and districts gather together. He has further contended that depiction and posture of Kaalinga Rayen in the conference, according to the respondents will lead to severe law and order problem in that area and therefore, learned Additional Government Pleader prays for dismissal of the writ petition in limine.
