M.S.V. Raja & Anr vs Seeni Thevar & Ors on 14 August, 2001

In the fourth decision in M.S.V.Raja's case, the facts concerned that there was a factual finding to the effect that from time immemorial, the religious denomination of a community of Raju of Singarajakottai were administering the temple and among them, the trustees were elected. However, Pandarams were engaged to perform pooja as Poojaris and those Pandarams claimed hereditary trusteeship, but it was negatived. In those circumstances, the Court ultimately held that the suit temple is a public temple and the management of the suit temple with the religious denomination of Rajus and the relief of declaration and injunction so far it relates to worship in pooja according to usage by Pandarams in the temple is rejected. But, here, absolutely my above discussion would show that the facts are entirely different that the plaintiffs have not proved that they are hereditary trustees.
