Swamy Prakasananda & Anr vs State Of Kerala & Ors

The Supreme Court clarified the role of the Monitoring Committee established for the Sanghom, emphasizing that it serves as an advisory body without enforcement powers over the elected Trust Board. The Court held that while the Committee can suggest actions and inquire into irregularities, it cannot impose directions or reverse Trust Board decisions, thereby maintaining the Trust Board's autonomy in governance. The Court reiterated that the Monitoring Committee's purpose is to ensure transparency and accountability, not to act as a superior authority.
