Learned counsel appearing for the petitioner, on instructions, would submit that in the event of permission being granted to conduct the song and dance programme, there will not be any law, order or communal problem and no vulgarity or obscenity will be there and hence, prays for appropriate orders. This Court heard the submissions of Mr.K.Thangapandian, learned Government Advocate, who accepts notice for the respondent.

This Court, taking into consideration the limited scope of the prayer sought for by the petitioner and without going into the merits of the application/representation, directs the 2nd respondent to consider the application/representation dated 31.05.2016, in accordance with law and pass orders on or before 03.06.2016 and communicate the decision taken, to the petitioner forthwith.

The writ petition is disposed of, accordingly. No costs.
