The petitioner's application dated 09.04.2018, seeking direction to the first respondent to give police protection and directing respondents to give adequate police protection to construct a compound wall to the CSI TNDTA Middle School, Karunkadal, has been kept pending without disposal, which prompted the petitioner to file the present Criminal Original Petition.
