Court: Chennai

Decided on: Dec-07-1995

Reported in: (1996)1MLJ657

ORDER1. This litigation depicts a very sad picture of persons who are supposed to have dedicated their lives to the cause of spreading the message of love and harmony in the name of Jesus Christ and purporting to be holy evangelists but actually indulging in acrimonious quarrels and in fights of attrition running after the power of office ignoring the duty of service attached thereto. The fact that there are so many litigations in different courts in the state speaks volumes of their failings as human beings and their inability to practice what is preached by them to the common folk whom they describe compendiously as 'flocks'.

Before adverting to the present dispute, it is better to refer to the formation of Vellore Diocese and the relevant provisions of the Constitution of the Church of South India (hereinafter referred to as 'CSI') as well as the Constitution and th...
