High Court Lays Down the Law Dealing with Public Charitable Trusts

A suit to protect the Trust property from persons acting without authority does not necessarily seek the direction of the Court for the "administration of the trust" in the public sense but rather seeks to secure the Trust’s integrity. S.92 of Code of Civil Procedure,1908 does not lay down that with respect to a public charitable trust, only a suit under S.92 can be filed. S.92 is not the sole repository of suits filed by or against a Public Charitable Trust.
