JUDGMENT
SHAJI P.CHALY,J.
This writ petition is filed as a Public Interest Litigation by an unregistered association viz., Janasakthi Idukki Unit, represented by its unit President A.P.Mathew and an individual claims to be the Secretary of the said association seeking the following reliefs:
1.To issue a writ of mandamus, direction or order commanding respondents 1 to 6 to ensure that No person shall erect or re-erect any building within construction free zone Area under Idukki Township Area Development scheme.
2.To prohibit respondents 3 and 5 from issuing any building permits for erection or re- erection of any construction within the construction free zone area under Idukki Township Area Development scheme.
3. To prohibit respondents 7 to 12 from erecting or re-erecting any structures or buildings within the construction free zone area under Idukki Township Area Development scheme.
4. To direct the 5th respondent to take all necessary immediate action for demolition and removal of all unauthorised constructions including flood damaged building remains within the construction free zone area under Idukki Township Area Development scheme.
5.To pass such other interim and consequential orders
2. Brief material facts for the disposal of the writ petition are as follows;
Petitioners are permanent residents of Idukki Village. According to them, they WP(C).No.30113 OF 2018(S) 5 are Members of Janasakthi, a social welfare organization; respondents 7 to 11 are owners and occupants of some buildings in Cheruthony Idukki district and they are interested persons as they are owners and occupants of unauthorised constructions within a prohibited construction free zone in Idukki.
3. According to the petitioners, as per Idukki Township Area Development Scheme, no person shall erect or re-erect any building within construction free zone in Idukki and the said scheme stood violated and more than 344 buildings have been constructed by different persons and organizations in the construction free zone. According to them, the 2018 August floods washed away many such unauthorised buildings partly and fully and the remaining of the collapsed and half collapsed 7 storied and 5 storied and other buildings stand near the river and roads posing danger to public, tourists and also animals. Attempts are now being made by respondents 7 to 10 and many others to reclaim the washed away shores of the Cheruthony River running at Cheruthoni town construction free zone area, as if they are mending the damages caused to the buildings in the flood of august 2018. The attempt, according to the petitioners, is to save their unauthorised constructions and expand holdings by encroaching the damaged river bed at Cheruthony Idukki. The Authorities failed to implement a Government approved scheme in its letter and spirit and in order to prevent violations and encroachment of river, in the interests of public, the petitioners filed this public interest writ petition before WP(C).No.30113 OF 2018(S) 6 this Court.
4. Counter affidavits are filed by the party respondents as well as Government refuting the contentions raised in the writ petition. It is contended by all that, the scheme envisaged by the State Government viz., Idukki Township Area Development Scheme, in exercise of the powers conferred by section 4 of the Travancore Town and Country Planning Act, 1120 r/w. Rule 12 of the Travancore Town and Country Planning Rules, 1953 dated 27.9.1980 was never notified by the State Government. Petitioners have not produced the copy of the scheme published by the State Government. However, the 13th respondent, viz., Idukki District Residential and Commercial Building Owners Association, Cheruthoni, Idukki District, has produced the scheme as Ext.R13(a).
5. We have heard Sri.A.K.Madhavanunni, learned counsel for petitioners, Sri.K.V.Sohan, learned State Attorney appeared for respondents 1, 3 and 6, Sri.Unnikrishnan V. Alappat, learned Standing Counsel appeared for respondent No.4, Sri.Jimmi George Thadathi, learned counsel, appeared for respondent No.5, Smt.Sumathy Dandapany, learned Senior counsel, appeared for respondent No.7, Sri.Terrry V. James, learned counsel, appeared for respondent No.8, Sri.M.Ramesh Chandra, learned Senior Counsel, appeared for respondent No.10, Sri.Santheep Ankarath, learned counsel, appeared for respondent No.11, Sri.A.Shafeek (Kayamkulam), learned counsel, appeared for respondent No.12, Sri.P.K.Ravishankar, learned counsel, appeared for respondent No.13 and WP(C).No.30113 OF 2018(S) 7 Sri.Jacob P. Alex, learned Amicus Curiae.
6. It is clear from the pleadings and the legal grounds raised by the writ petitioners that, the case is built upon Ext.R13(a) scheme of the State Government. In our considered opinion, if the scheme is not implemented by the State Government by notifying the same in the official gazette, petitioners are not entitled to get any reliefs as are sought for in the writ petition. We will come to the said aspect at a later point of time. Nowhere in the writ petition petitioners have stated that 1st petitioner is a registered association under any of the statutes in vogue in the State of Kerala. The 7 th respondent i.e., one Antony, owner of a building, has specifically taken a contention that the 1 st petitioner is not a registered association and therefore, no writ petition can be filed by the 1 st petitioner. Seventh respondent has also submitted that it is not stated anywhere in the writ petition, who are the members of the 1 st petitioner association and no court fee has paid on behalf of the members of the association, who are said to be the beneficiaries of the association on account of the filing of the writ petition.
7. It is the settled position in law that no writ petition can be maintained by an unregistered association and also without producing the list of the members of the association, who are also liable to pay court fees. Therefore, we are of the opinion that, 1st petitioner has no locus standi to file the public interest litigation.
8. Whatever that may be, the 2 nd petitioner is an individual, who claims WP(C).No.30113 OF 2018(S) 8 to be the Secretary of the 1st petitioner association and therefore, we are of the considered opinion that even though the 1 st petitioner is not a competent person, the 2nd petitioner being an individual is entitled to maintain the writ petition. We are not going into the rival contentions raised by the parties in the writ petition since the learned State Attorney has submitted before this Court that Ext.R13(a) scheme is not notified by the State Government in contemplation of the provisions of the scheme. However, learned counsel for petitioners submitted that a further notification of the scheme is not required since the explanatory note in Ext.R13(a) scheme makes it clear that it was notified. The relevant portion of the scheme reads thus:

(Ms) No. 240/80/LA&SWD. Dated, Trivandrum, 26th September 1930. S. R. O. No. 900/80:-- In exercise of the powers conferred by section 4 of the Travancore-Town and Country Planning Act; 1120 (Travancore Act XXI of 1120 ) read with rule 12 of the Travancore Town and Country Planning Rules, 1953, Government of Kerala hereby promulgate the Idukki Township Area Development Scheme, the same having been previously published as required by rule 11 of the Travancore Town and Country Planning Rules, 1953.
By order of the Governor, M. DANDAPANI, Special Secretary to Government.
Explanatory Note (This does not form part of the notification, but is intended to indicate its general purport) In the notification No. 303/76/LA&SWD dated 21-12-1976 published in the Gazette Extraordinary No.751 dated 31st December, 1976, Government constituted the Idukki Township Area Development Authority for the preparation of a scheme for the development of the Township area. The said Authority has prepared and submitted a scheme for the development of the area for approval. Government have published the scheme for the information of persons likely to be affected thereby. They have now approved the scheme. It has to be published in the Gazette as required under the provisions of the Travancore Town and Country Planning Act, 1120. This notification is intended to achieve the above purpose.
THE IDUKKI TOWNSHIP AREA DEVELOPMENT SCHEME
1. Short title and commencement.--(a) This scheme may be called as the "Idukki Township Area Development Scheme.
(b) It shall come into force with effect from a date to be announced later by Government."
9. On a reading of the explanatory note, it is clear that the scheme was published for the information of persons likely to be affected thereby and it was accordingly published in the gazette. However, clause 1(b) of the scheme extracted above makes it clear that it shall come into force only with effect from the date to be announced later by the Government. The scheme is of the WP(C).No.30113 OF 2018(S) 10 year, 1980 and when the matter was taken up before this Court on 5 th February, 2020, the learned State Attorney submitted that the scheme was not notified. However, on that date the State was directed to file a counter affidavit. Anyhow when the matter came up before this Court on 6.1.2021, the learned State Attorney again submitted that the scheme is not yet notified by the State Government.
10. Taking into account the above said aspect, we are of the considered opinion that since the scheme has not yet come into force by issuing appropriate notification by the State Government in contemplation of the provisions of the scheme, petitioners are not entitled to get any reliefs as are sought for in the writ petition, due to the prime reason that, the entire pleadings made in the writ petition is dependent on the scheme and the mistaken impression that the scheme was implemented by the State Government.
Therefore, the writ petition has no sustenance, accordingly it is dismissed.
