CHENNAI: The Revenue Department authorities also invoked section 146 (1) CrPC (power to attach subject of dispute and to appoint receiver) given the potentiality of the dispute between the two factions.

According to the notice from the RDO, the building, ‘MGR Maligai’ is attached and the Royapettah police have been directed to lock and seal the premises and provide sufficient protection to disputed property.

“The parties are requested to approach a competent civil court to obtain necessary orders and Mylapore Tahsildar has been appointed as receiver of the property,” the notice from RDO stated.

An official release from the city police stated that the representatives of both the factions have to appear before the authorities concerned on July 25 to decide who has a hold over the party office.
