Now, the President of the third respondent-society had decided to shift the said Society to Manurpalayam, which is very close to Karuppatipalayam where the President hails from. Dissatisfied with the act of the President, the residents of Sembaegoundenpalayam and its neighbouring village made representations to the respondents.
