HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE R.KANTHA RAO C.R.P.No.5983 OF 2010 Dated 19-1-2011 Between: Syed Kaleel-Ur-Rehman. …Appellant. And: J.Srinivas Reddy and others. …Respondents. HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE R.KANTHA RAO C.R.P.No.5983 OF 2010 ORDER: There has been no representation on behalf of the revision petitioner in spite of several adjournments. Revision Petitioner herein is the defendant and respondents herein are the plaintiffs before the Court below. Learned counsel appearing for the respondents submits that this revision has been filed only to protract the litigation and there is no substance in the revision filed by the revision petitioner. This Court therefore proceeds to dispose of the revision on merits. The order impugned in the revision is disallowing an application i n I.A.No.1720 of 2010 in O.S.No.31 of 2009 filed by the revision petitioner under Section 151 C.P.C to send the rental agreement for impounding the document for the purpose of marking the same in evidence. In fact, the said document was filed by the respondents and they had not chosen to mark the same. There is a direction by this Court in C.R.P.No.5283 of 2009 to dispose of the suit within a period of six months but the application to send the rental agreement for impounding the document was filed after the evidence of plaintiff is over and when the matter is posted for defendant’s evidence. In view of the pendency of the said petition and subsequently carrying the matter in the present revision before this Court, the suit could not be disposed of. Learned Court below has rightly held that under Section 17 (1) (d) of the Registration Act, even if the rental agreement is for a period of 11 months is compulsorily registerable, impounding of document also does not make it admissible because the purpose for marking the document is not collateral purpose. The jural relationship between the parties is not in dispute, so also the possession of the petitioner as a tenant of the schedule mentioned premises. For the purpose of proving the document, the same cannot be relied upon unless it is registered. Therefore, the learned trial Court has rightly dismissed the petition. There is no illegality or irregularity committed by the trial Court in passing the order impugned declining to send the rental agreement dated 18-1-2007 for impounding. The revision being devoid of any merits is liable to be dismissed. Accordingly, the Revision Petition is dismissed. There shall be no order as to costs. __________________________ Justice R.KANTHA RAO Dated 19-1-2011. Dvs HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE R.KANTHA RAO C.R.P.No.5983 OF 2010 Dated 19-1-2011
