ORDERP. Unnikrishna Kurup, J.1. This revision petition is filed against an order of the District Judge of Ernakulam, whereby I. A. No. 47 of 1969 for condoning the delay in the presentation of G. M. A. No. 3 of 1969 before the District Court, was dismissed. The petitioner filed O. P. No. 7 of 1965 for permission to sue in forma pauperis in the Munsif's court of Cochin. That petition was dismissed by the order of the court dated 18-8-1967. The petitioner filed a C. R. P. in the High Court against the order, which was dismissed on the ground that no C. R.

A.J. George and anr. Vs. Coffee Board and ors.

Court: Kerala

Decided on: Nov-03-1971

Reported in: (1972)IILLJ276Ker

P. Govindan Nair, J.1. The short question in this petition is whether in all the circumstances of the case, This Court will be justified in giving a direction to the 1st respondent, the Coffee Board, constituted under the Coffee Act, 1942, to dispose of the representations Ext. P3 and P4 made by the two petitioners against a list of the employees of the Coffee Board appended to an order Ext. P2 as well as against the confirmation of respondents 2 to 7 as Chief Coffee Inspectors by an order Ext. P7, dated 11-10-1966, be heard and disposed of by orders as also a direction that the representations made by some respondents be heard and disposed of by orders.2. I shall presently refer to the facts in so far as they are necessary for the disposal of the case but I must first deal with the arguments advanced on behalf of the Coffee Board by counsel that no application under Article 226 of the Constitution would lie as the Coffee Board at best can only be said to be a statutory authority and t...

K.P. Mathai Vs. the Principal, Regional Engineering College and anr.

Court: Kerala

Decided on: Nov-03-1971

Reported in: (1972)IILLJ283Ker

P. Govindan Nair, J.1. The petitioner was an employee of the Regional Engineering College, Calicut. The first respondent to this petition is the Principal of the College. The petitioner was dismissed from service and that dismissal is challenged in this petition.2. A preliminary objection has been raised by counsel for the respondents that this petition is not maintainable under Article 226 of the Constitution as the relationship between the petitioner and the first respondent is purely that of master and servant. It is further urged that the college is not a statutory body, is not created by a statute and does not discharge any sovereign powers. It has no power to give directions. There are no statutory rules which have been infringed and which may give rise to a complaint justiciable under Article 226 of the Constitution. All these contentions of the first respondent, I consider, are well-founded. The college is a society registered under the Societies Registration Act, 1860. It does...
