Vasudevan Namboodiri Vs. A.M Parameswaran Namboodirippad

Court : Kerala

..... " thus the definition of the term 'court' in the madras hindu religious and charitable endowments act, 1951 alone is contra distinct from the definition found in the act, the koodalmanickam devaswom act, 2005 and the travancore- cochin hindu religious institutions act, 1950. ..... a reference to the definition of 'court' appearing in similar enactments governing the administration of temples in the state will be extremely profitable to decipher the intent of the expression 'court' appearing in the act and the same are enumerated hereunder: (i) section 2(d) of the koodalmanickam devaswom act, 2005 defines 'court' as under: "'court' means the district court having 6 crp nos. ..... the guruvayur devaswom act, 1978 (the 'act' for short) was enacted by the state after a long deliberation to make provision for the proper administration of the guruvayur devaswom in public interest and in the interest of the worshipers of the temples thereunder. ..... it shall be the duty of the guruvayur devaswom managing committee constituted under section 3 of the act to arrange for the proper performance of the rights and ceremonies in the temple and the subordinate temples attached thereto under section 10(a) of the act. ..... the defendants are the guruvayur devaswom, its administrator and 'tantri' and two other persons interested in the rituals of the temple got themselves impleaded questioning the very maintainability of the suit in the court of the munsiff. .....

Koodalmanickom Devaswom (by Superintendent) Vs. Kunhan Kartha (K.P.) a ...

Court : Kerala

Reported in : (1967)IILLJ639Ker

..... issued by his highness the maharaja of cochin, and the proclamation of 1094 issued by his highness the maharaja of travancore and its employees were outside the purview of the shops act;(2) that the kaimal alone could represent the devaswom even before respondent 2 and that in the absence of the kaimal as a party the appeal to respondent 2 itself was not properly constituted; and(3) that the koodalmanickom dewaswom was neither a 'shop' nor a 'commercial establishment' within the meaning of those terms in the shops act, 1960.3. ..... adverting to the plea thus specifically raised, in the light of the evidence adduced, respondent 2 found that the devaswom bad seven sub-offices and a temporary establishment and that that part of the koodalmardckom devaswom which is engaged in the collection of rent of its properties and maintenance of records of these collections, is an 'establishment' as given in the definition of' commercial establishment' in the kerala shops act, 1960. ..... on the terms of the statute taken along with the facts as found by the appellate authority, the conclusion seems to be inescapable that the devaswom satisfies the definition of a 'commercial establishment' for the purposes of the shops act. ..... it seems to me also that with the above statutory definition, the only question is whether the devaswom fills the bill for the limited purpose of the act and not whether it can be said to a commercial establishment for all purposes whatsoever. .....
