¶1Heard learned counsel for the parties.

¶2The dispute relates to possession over idol of Goddess Ganga, which was initially installed over the Trust property and during road widening the same was kept at the adjacent place. The petitioner is aggrieved that initially the respondent had assured after the end of Ardh Kumbh, the idol would be installed at appropriate place but till date either on account of intervention by the private respondent or the State, the same has not been installed at appropriate place.

¶3Sri S.C.Upadhayay, learned Standing Counsel submits that such disputed fact cannot be pressed in the writ jurisdiction. In case, the petitioner moves an appropriate application before the competent district authorities, definitely, the grievance of the petitioner would be examined and redressed as per law.

¶4Considering the facts and circumstances of the case, no useful purpose would be served in keeping the writ petition pending for consideration and without adverting on the merit of the issue, we dispose of the writ petition asking the petitioner to move an appropriate application/representation ventilating his grievance before the Sub Divisional Magistrate concerned within two weeks from today. In case, any such application is moved within stipulated period, definitely, the same would be looked into, examined and redressed within four weeks thereafter but certainly after affording opportunity to all stakeholders in the matter.
