Following the above, the writ petition is disposed of directing first respondent or any other Registering Officer to consider the document presented by the petitioners for registration. Be it noted, if for any reason, the document presented is not registered, it is incumbent on the part of the Registering Officer to record and furnish reasons under Section 71 of the Act. Even thereafter, if petitioners have any grievance, they may file appeal before the appellate authority under Section 72 of the Act. Thereafter, if any adverse order is passed by the appellate authority, the petitioners can file a suit under Section 77 of the Act. Be it made clear that this order shall not be construed as favourable or unfavourable finding conferring title on parties hereto or third parties.
