Today, the learned Standing Counsel for the Travancore Devaswom Board, Shri.G.Biju, submitted that a statement has been filed on record producing Annexure R3(a) communication from the Director of the Board to the Manager of the Shethra Kalapeedom, Vaikom, permitting any other candidate to apply under the notification on or before 31/08/2019.
