                                                          JUDGMENT

(Judgment of the Court was delivered by D.KRISHNAKUMAR, J.)

Challenging the interim order dated 22.11.2022 made in W.M.P.

(MD)No.17495 of 2022 in W.P.(MD)No.21382 of 2022, the appellant has

come forward with this writ appeal.

2. It is the case of the appellant that the appellant is the member of

the 4th respondent society and he has filed a writ petition in W.P.(MD)No.

21382 of 2022, seeking for a direction to the respondents 1 and 2 to

invoke Section 34 of Tamil Nadu Societies Registration Act, 1975, by

calling for an explanation from the 4th respondent's association with

regard to their conduct of Annual General Body Meeting scheduled to be

taken place on 11.09.2022 and consequently, proceed against them as per

law. Along with the said writ petition, the petitioner has filed an interim

injunction, restraining the 4th respondent from holding a meeting called

W.A(MD) No.45 of 2023

Annual General Body Meeting in their association on 11.09.2022 or in

other dates falling subsequently, pending disposal of the main writ

petition. This Court by order dated, 07.09.2022, granted an interim

injunction. As against the same, the fourth respondent has filed the

vacate stay petition in W.M.P.(MD)No.17495 of 2022 and this Court , by

order dated 22.11.2022, allowed the said petition and vacated the interim

injunction granted by this Court on 07.09.2022. As against the same, the

appellant has filed this Writ Appeal.

3. The learned counsel appearing for the appellant submitted that

in the affidavit filed in support of the writ petition, the appellant has

categorically averred the fact with regard to the suspension order that has

been passed by the 4th respondent's association. However, without taking

note of the said fact, the learned Single Judge stated that the petitioner

has suppressed the aforesaid fact and vacated the interim injunction and

therefore, the interim order passed by the learned Single Judge warrants

interference.

4. We have heard the learned counsel appearing on either side and

perused the materials available on record.

W.A(MD) No.45 of 2023

5. Considering the facts and circumstances of the case, we are of

the view that there is no merit in this Writ Appeal and therefore, we are

not inclined to interfere with the order of the learned Single Judge.

6. Accordingly, this Writ Appeal is dismissed. However, we make

it clear that without being influenced by any of the observations made in

this judgment or in the orders of the writ Court, the writ petition can be

decided on its own merits. No costs. Consequently, connected

miscellaneous petition is closed.

                                                                  [D.K.K., J.]       [R.V., J.]
