The application for impleadment is allowed.
DBAR NO. 7/12
The only objection that is raised is touching some confusion in the matter of providing the register for the seal of the Devaswom Committee. We accept the submission on behalf of CDB and the impleaded additional respondent that the said situation would not recur hereafter and as of now the materials available with the Board have been properly sealed. We close this objection and order that here after there shall be no such violation. DBAR ordered
accordingly.
