To Judge ANTONY DOMINIC, J ....................................................... W.P.(C).21736/2011 .............................................. Dated this the 10th day of August, 2011 JUDGMENT Petitioner submits that he intends to purchase a property situated in Survey No.818 of Vagamon Village from one Mr.Devasiachan Mathew. According to the petitioner, since the second respondent has instructed that no documents shall be registered in the absence of NOC issued by the Revenue Department, the first respondent is refusing to register the sale deed. It is with the above allegation that the writ petition has been filed, seeking a direction to the first respondent to admit the sale deed for registration and register the same without insisting for production of NOC issued by respondents 2 and 3. 2. This issue canvassed by the learned counsel for the petitioner is covered by a judgment of this Court in W.A.2080/2009 a copy of which is produced as Ext.P2. Therefore, the petitioner is entitled to succeed. W.P.(C).21736/11 2 3. Accordingly I direct that if the sale deed which is valid in all respects, is presented for registration in accordance with law, the same will be dealt with by the first respondent without insisting for production of NOC from respondents 2 and 3. However, it is clarified that such registration in pursuance to the directions of this Court, will not affect any proceedings which are pending against the land in question. Writ petition is disposed of as above. ANTONY DOMINIC, Judge mrcs
