ORDER

(Order of the Court was made by R.SUDHAKAR,J.) The prayer in the writ petition is rather vague and confusing. However, what we could discern from the argument of the learned counsel for the petitioner is that one Sankar claiming to be a contractor is collecting excess charges for parking vehicles in and around Arulmighu Sankaranarayanaswamy Temple. In this regard, the petitioner has given complaint to the Municipal Commissioner, the second respondent herein. According to him, it is the duty of the second respondent to stop such illegality and the District Collector, the first respondent herein should supervise the action to be initiated by the second respondent. 2.We do not express any opinion on the merits of the case except to direct the concerned authority to consider the nature of complaint given and ensure that there is no illegal or unauthorised collection by any person whomsoever.
