THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE ASHUTOSH MOHUNTA WRIT PETITION No.3505 OF 2011 ORDER: The petitioner has averred that the vendors of the petitioner have purchased the property to an extent of 499.5 square yards situated in survey No.501/1 of Kakinada Municipality under two different registered sale deeds dated 07.06.1958 and 28.03.1961. On 03.01.2008, the third respondent issued a letter to the District Registrar not to register any document with regard to the lands specified in certain survey numbers. Again on 17.12.2009, the third respondent issued a circular prohibiting registration with regard to certain lands and insisting for production of ‘No Objection Certificate’ for the purpose of registration. On 02.08.2010, the fifth respondent issued a letter directing the petitioner to obtain ‘No Objection Certificate’ for registration of sale from the second respondent. Learned counsel for the petitioner placed reliance on the judgment of this Court in W.P.No.6016 of 2010 decided on 02.07.2010 wherein it was held that there is no legal basis for the registration authorities in insisting upon a ‘No Objection Certificate’ from the revenue authorities as a condition precedent for entertaining any document for registration once the prohibition under Section 22-A of the Registration Act, 1908 does not come into operation. Learned Government Pleader for the respondents does not dispute the aforementioned legal position. In view of the above, this writ petition is allowed in the same terms as in W.P.No.6016 of 2010. Accordingly, directions are issued to the fifth respondent to receive the documents, which may be submitted by the petitioner and process the same for registration in accordance with law. No costs.
