In Nandakumar v. District Collector and others

that the legal position has been made clear by the Apex Court

Travancore Devaswom Board vs Rajasekharan Nair on 26 May, 2003
The said decision
was referred to and relied on by a Division Bench of this Court
in Travancore Devaswom Board v. Mohanan Nair [2013
(3) KLT 132]. In the said circumstances, the properties of the
Devaswom, if at all encroached by anybody and if any
assignment/conveyance has been effected without
involvement of the Devaswom, securing 'pattayam' or such
other deeds, the same cannot confer any right upon the
parties concerned, unless the title so derived is clear in all

respects. There cannot be any dispute that the remedy to
retrieve such property belonging to the Devaswom is by
resorting to the course stipulated in the Kerala Land
Conservancy Act, 1957.

Mrinalini Padhi vs Union Of India on 4 November, 2019
In Mrinalini Padhi v. Union of India [2018 SCC
OnLine SC 667] - order dated 05.07.2018 in W.P.(C)No.649
of 2018 - the Apex Court noticed that the issue of difficulties
faced by the visitors, exploitative practices, deficiencies in the
management, maintenance of hygiene, proper utilisation of
offerings and protection of assets may require consideration
with regard to all Shrines throughout the India, irrespective of
religion practiced in such shrines. It cannot be disputed that
this aspect is covered by List III Item 28 of the Seventh
Schedule to the Constitution of India and there is need to look
into this aspect by the Central Government, apart from State
Governments. Section 92 of the Code of Civil Procedure, 1908
permits a court also to issue direction for making a scheme or
making an arrangement for any charitable or religious
institution. Accordingly, the Apex Court directed that, if any
devotee moves the jurisdictional District Judge throughout the
India with any grievance on the above aspect, the District

Judge may either himself/herself or by assigning the issue/
matter to any other court under his/her jurisdiction examine
above aspects and if necessary send a report to the High
Court. The High Court will consider these aspects in public
interest, in accordance with law, and issue such judicial
directions as becomes necessary having regard to individual
fact situation.
