The Hon’ble Sri Justice R.Subhash Reddy Writ Petition No.19985 of 2010 Order: In this Writ Petition, the petitioners have questioned proceedings, dated 27-07-2010, in Rc.No.B1/296/2008, issued by respondent No.2. The petitioners sought for a consequential direction to respondent No.3 to register the lands admeasuring Ac.1-15 cents owned by petitioner Nos.1 to 3 and Ac.1- 19 cents owned by petitioner No.4 in Survey No.425-B situated at Gooty Village, Anantapur District. It is the case of the petitioners that they are the owners and possessors of the aforesaid land and that when they intended to sell the said lands by registered documents, respondent No.3 refused to register the same in view of the impugned proceedings issued by respondent No.2. Heard the learned Counsel for the petitioners and also the learned Government Pleader for Revenue appearing for respondent Nos.1 to 3. A perusal of impugned proceedings, dated 27-07- 2010, issued by respondent No.2- Tahsildar, Gooty, to respondent No.3, does not indicate that he has issued any directions to respondent No.3 not to register the lands in question. It appears that respondent No.4 has made an application to respondent No.2 requesting him not to register the lands covered by Survey No.425, and that the same was forwarded by respondent No.2 to respondent No.3. In that view of the matter, I do not find any illegality in respondent No.2 forwarding such an application to respondent No.3. It is the case of the petitioners that respondent No.4 is not at all concerned with the lands in question and that he is only concerned with the land admeasuring Ac.0-67 ½ cents in Survey No.425/B whereas they are intending to sell the remaining land in the same survey number, for which there cannot be no objection for registration. On instructions, the learned Government Pleader for Revenue submitted that so far no document has been presented by the petitioners for the purpose of registration and that the petitioners have filed the present Writ Petition merely on an apprehension of refusal. Whenever a document is presented for the purpose of registration, the same has to be received and considered for registration as per the provisions of the Registration Act, 1908 (for short ‘the Act’), and if there are any objections therefor, the registering authority has to record the reasons under Section 71 of the Act. Inasmuch as it is submitted by the learned Government Pleader that the petitioners have not presented any document for registration, I deem it appropriate to dispose of the Writ Petition permitting the petitioners to present the document for registration, if they are willing to transfer any other land belonging to them. On such presentation of the document, respondent No.3 shall consider the same for registration if it is in accordance with the Act. However, it is made clear that if there are any impediments for such registration, respondent No.3 shall record the reasons under Section 71 of the Act and communicate the same to the petitioners. Subject to the above direction, the Writ Petition is disposed of. There shall be no order as to costs. _________________ R.Subhash Reddy, J Date: 16th August, 2010 Note: Furnish CC in three days.
