For Petitioner : Mr.R.Anand For Respondents : Mr.T,Amjadkhan Govt. Advocate 1/8 https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis W.P(MD)No.32108 of 2025 ORDER This writ petition has been filed seeking issuance of a Writ of Mandamus directing the respondents 2 and 3 to consider and dispose of the petitioner’s representation dated 18.07.2025, as expeditiously as possible, within the time frame to be stipulated by this Court. 2. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Government Advocate appearing for the respondents. Perused the materials available on record. 3. The learned Government Advocate, would bring to the notice of this court that fact that the Treasurer one P. Gladys Lily Paulsamy, had earlier filed W.P.(MD) No. 10636 of 2025 seeking the very same relief, which reads as follows: “To issue a Writ of Mandamus, directing the respondent Nos.1 to 3 to restore the name of Annai Velankanni College Administrative Society, Tholayavattam, Kanyakumari District (Regd.No.9/1980) as a college committee for all purposes in connection with the functioning of the said college in the light of the order passed by this Hon'ble Court in W.P(MD)No.3872 of 2023 dated 20.03.2024 and on the strength of the Form – 7 submitted before the 4th respondent by considering the petitioner's representation dated 10.03.2025 forthwith.” 2/8 https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis W.P(MD)No.32108 of 2025 That writ petition was disposed of with direction to the first respondent to consider the petitioner's representation dated 10.03.2025. He would further submit that during the enquiry conducted pursuant to this order, the petitioner herein participated in the enquiry and orders passed. These facts are totally suppressed by the petitioner. 4. Upon perusal of the records, it is seen that W.P.(MD)No.10636 of 2025 was filed by the Treasurer of the society, and this Court, by order dated 22.04.2025, passed the following directions: “In the light of the above observations, there shall be a direction to the first respondent to consider the petitioner's representation dated 10.03.2025, on its own merits and pass appropriate orders in accordance with law, after giving due opportunity to the petitioner, as well as all other persons, who may be interested in the subject matter, within a period of six weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. It is also made clear that this Court has not expressed any of its views with regard to the merits of the matter and that it is open to the first respondent to consider the same on its own merits.” 5. From the letter dated 19.07.2025 sent by the Commissioner of Collegiate Education, Chennai, to the petitioner in W.P.(MD)No.10636 of 2025, it is evident that though the petitioner in W.P.(MD)No.10636 of 2025 3/8 https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis W.P(MD)No.32108 of 2025 did not appear for the enquiry, the present petitioner participated, and the enquiry was completed. The relevant portions of the letter read as follows: “2.nrd;id cau;ePjpkd;w kJiu fpisahy; toq;fg;gl;l 22.04.2025 ehspl;l jPu;g;ghizf;fpzq;f> kDjhuu; kw;Wk; ,e;Neu;tpy; njhlu;Gila egu;fs; tprhuizf;F miof;fg;gl;ldu; 02.07.2025 Njjpapy; Neub tprhuiz Nkw;nfhs;sg;gl;lJ.

In view of the above facts, it is clear that the issue raised in this writ petition has already been considered in the earlier writ petition filed by the Treasurer. Suppressing the said fact, the present petitioner has approached this Court once again for the same relief. Hence, this Court finds that the petitioner has abused the process of law by misusing the provisions of Article 226 of the Constitution of India. 7. Accordingly, this writ petition stands dismissed, with a cost of Rs.25,000/- (Rupees Twenty-Five Thousand only) payable by the petitioner to the Chief Justice Relief Fund on or before 27.11.2025. 8. Post the matter on 28.11.2025 for reporting compliance. 6/8 https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis W.P(MD)No.32108 of 2025 12.11.2025 NCC : Yes/No Index : Yes / No Internet : Yes/ No skn To 1.The Secretary to the Government, College Education Department, Secretariat, Chennai. 2.The Director, Director of Collegiate Education, No.577, Anna Salai, Saidapet, Chennai. 3.The Joint Director of Collegiate Education, Tirunelveli. 7/8 https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis W.P(MD)No.32108 of 2025 P.T.ASHA, J. skn Writ Petition(MD)No.32108 of 2025 12.11.2025 8/8 https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis
