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

The petitioner claims to be the President of the Temple Festival of Arulmigu Sri Mariamman Thirukoil, situate at Aalampalayam, Dharapuram Taluk of Tirupur District. He submitted a representation/application dated 30.05.2016 to the respondent, seeking permission to conduct a cultural program on 08.06.2016, 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. 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.Thangapandi, learned Government Advocate, who accepts notice for the respondent.
