The seminary and adjoining church saw many disputes from the early 1970s and still the issues continues.

The rival group of Malankara Orthodox Church-(Now they formed new community in 2002 named Jacobite Syrian Church under patriarch of Syrian Orthodox Church)- are fighting for the ownership of the seminary properties.Too many times reval group Catholicose Baselios '''Thomas I''' tried and also trying to Seize this seminary , but Malankara Christians fight against this extortion and saving the seminary from surrendering to Antiochyan people, and remembering '''Coonan Cross Oath'''.

Due to the grace of Lord Almighty, this year's(2009 January 25) Feast passed peacefully.
The government authorities made it clear to the Society members,
there will be only Prayers and no other activities like offering incense or Holy
Qurbana will be allowed. Metal dictators were also installed.

After one batch of the Puthencruz Bishops came and prayed at the Tomb and left,
HB came to offer prayers along with a group. HB was murmuring to his aids on the
way to the Tomb. One aid carried a heavy red cloth which was later realized as
HB's Kappa. Another carried a bag which was detained by metal dictator. It had
a Cup & Chalice, and Sensor etc. On reaching the tomb HB started putting the
Kappa. Now may be according to the latest Antiochian tradition while offering
prayers at the Tomb, you don't have to remove the black rob the Bishop wears on
top of the Red rob and wear a white kuppayam before putting Kappa. Also the head
cover which is part of the Kappa of a Bishop is not needed and Masanapsa is
enough. May be this could be one of the latest rights given to the Maprhiyana
of Malankara.

After putting the robs HB started asking for the items which he was not aware
were detained by the Police but the people with HB were hopeful it will arrive
soon. However, they couldn't spend more than 10 minutes at the tomb since the
police kept an account of the time with a stop watch. Finally HB had to return -
Mission Accomplished.......... Last year due to the benevolence of the
Ministers, HB could swing the sensor at the Tomb without fire, this time there
was no such privilege since the Court was involved. The Police returned the
items that were detained while the group came back and the feelings on their
face could be well summarized "Enney kandal kinnum kattathanennu thonnumo".
