The petitioner submits that he had earlier instituted a suit for permanent injunction against the private respondents.

The official respondents do not 3/6 https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis W.P.No.26566 of 2026 have any statutory obligation to initiate action against the private respondents merely on the ground of an alleged violation of the compromise decree. 5.
