THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE RAMESH RANGANATHAN WRIT PETITION NO.22506 OF 2011 ORDER: Insistence by the 4th respondent, on the petitioner obtaining a ‘No objection certificate’ for the purpose of registration in respect of the lands in Sy.No.222/1 B in an extent of Ac.0-40 cents situated at Kakkalapalli village and post, Anantapur Rural Mandal, is questioned in this Writ Petition as being arbitrary and illegal. According to the petitioner, since the lands were assigned in year 1941 there is no prohibition for alienation; the said land had been transferred periodically, and such transfers were periodically registered by the Sub-Registrars concerned from time to time. When the petitioner sought to sell these lands, and approached the 4th respondent for registration, he is said to have refused to accord registration resulting in the petitioner invoking the jurisdiction of this Court. A counter affidavit is filed by the Sub-Registrar, Anantapur Rural, Anantapur District stating the said land admeasuring Ac.40- 00 cents in Sy.No.22/1 B is not included in the list of prohibited properties submitted by the revenue authorities in the year 2007; the petitioner had registered the property in the year 2010 vide document No.8369/2010; and it is only because the document was not presented was it not registered. I consider it appropriate, therefore, to dispose of the Writ Petition directing the 4th respondent to receive the document, on it being presented by the petitioner herein, and consider registering the same in accordance with the provisions of the Indian Stamp Act, the Registration Act and the Rules made thereunder within a period of two months from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. No costs. ___________ 3-11- 2011 asp
