Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court addressed the validity of the removal of Ajendraprasadji Narendraprasadji Pandey from the position of Acharya based on a resolution from the Satsangha Maha Sabha. The Court held that the interim order restricting the defendant from entering the temple and performing duties as Acharya was valid under Order 39 Rules 1 and 2 of the Code of Civil Procedure, 1908. The Court emphasized the need for clarity in religious leadership disputes and upheld the lower court's decision regarding the appointment of a new Acharya.
