HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE OF ANDHRA PRADESH THE HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE V.ESWARAIAH WRIT PETITON NO. 26719 OF 2005 Thursday, the Twenty Fourth day of February, Two Thousand and Eleven Between Convention of Baptist Churches of the Northern Circars, Dr. No. 5-626m Viveknanda Nagar, Old Dairy Farm (P.O), Visakhapatnam Rep. by its President V.V.K. Sharma and another Petitioners AND The Inspector General & Commissioner of Stamps and Registrations, Rakakrishna Complex, Golconda Chourasta, Hyderabad and another Respondents ORDER: It is the case of the petitioners that the first petitioner society was initially registered under the provisions of the A.P. Societies Registration Act. Now the registered society, either Andhra Area or Telangana Area, is deemed to have been registered under the provisions of the A.P. Societies Registration Act, 2001. If that be so, I am of the opinion that the dispute relating to the petitioner society has to be resolved by an appropriate civil court alone and, as such, no writ seeking mandamus is maintainable. Accordingly, the writ petition is dismissed with a liberty to the petitioners to work out the remedies before a competent civil court. Consequently, the writ petition is dismissed. No order as to costs. ___________________ Justice V.Eswaraiah February 24, 2011 MAS
