It, however, concludes that in case Sanjiv Kumar and Most. Parwati Devi work out their differences, give a consent letter or a succession certificate appropriate decision will be taken on this count. Since the authorities neither rejected nor allowed the claim of the petitioner in view of the family claim persisting, the ball is now in the court of the disputing party. Once they resolve their dispute either mutually or - 2 - through the court of law, they may approach the respondents who will take a decision accordingly. This writ application is disposed of with the observation aforesaid. AMIN/ (Ajay Kumar Tripathi, J.)
