Case Summary Seth Chand Ratan v. Pandit Durga Prasad (CA 5565/1995) The Supreme Court reversed the High Court's decision and held that Pandit Durga Prasad's writ petition was unmaintainable. The Court found the High Court erred in entertaining a writ petition after Durga Prasad had already exhausted his statutory appeal remedy under the M.P. Public Trusts Act, which became final in 1988. The Court ruled that the Registrar's 1956 order correcting the temple's registration was illegal, making Maheshwari Panchayati Mandir the rightful manager of the temple property, and granted respondents three months to file a civil suit to challenge the Registrar's findings.
