The High Court noted that “The petitioner has also completed 37 years of service as Arkaka, Upa-Pradhana Archaka and Pradhana Archaka. It also appears from the documents available on file that the petitioner was performing the Alankarana at the Ammnavaru and also obtained the title of “Alankara Kala Samrat”. Therefore, it appears that the petitioner has fully immersed himself in the service of the ammavaru deity and is the Pradhana Archaka descended from the hereditary Pradhana Archaka family and, therefore, the petitioner is entitled to the claim requested.
In view of the above, the High Court granted the Petition and ordered Defendants Nos. 1-3 to assign tasks to the Petitioner to perform the Alankarana (decoration) of Kanaka Durga Ammavaru in Sri Durga Malleswara Swamy Varla Devasthanam , Indra Keeladri, Vijayawada, Krishna Quarter.
