By consent, the writ petition is taken up for final disposal.

He submitted a representation/application dated 09.06.2015 to the respondent, seeking permission to conduct a cultural program on 23.06.2015, in connection with the temple festival, which includes song and dance programme and since, he has not been favoured with any kind of response, came forward to file this writ petition.

3. Learned counsel appearing for the petitioner would submit that in the event of permission being granted to conduct the song and dance programme, there will not be any law and order problem and no vulgarity or obscenity will be there and hence, prays for appropriate orders.
