Heard the learned counsel on either side.

2.The petitioner wants the petition mentioned religious event to be conducted. It appears that there are some objections from rival classes. In a connected matter filed by the rival party, I had directed the jurisdicational Tahsildar to convene a peace committee meeting and ensure that the event is conducted. I had made it clear that no one will be entitled for first respect or first honour. Therefore, I am of the view that the present Writ Petition can also be disposed of on the same lines.

3.The Jurisdicational Tahsildar shall convene a peace committee meeting. The third respondent will also associate himself in the process. All the stakeholders will be invited for the peace https://hcservices.ecourts.gov.in/hcservices/ 1/2
