But whether these allegations be right or wrong, we think that they become immaterial in view of certain proceedings which were begun in 1930 and resulted in a scheme being settled for the administration of this temple by the Court under Section 92, Civil P.C. The decree in those proceedings was made in 1933 and under it a scheme was settled by which the present defendant-respondents were constituted by the Court a committee of management, or, in other words, trustees, for the purpose of administering this public religious trust.
