THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE V.V.S.RAO WRIT PETITION No.24592 of 2006 Dated: 27-11-2006 Between: P. Govinda Raju and others. ..... PETITIONERS AND The Joint Sub-Registrar-I, Sangareddy. .....RESPONDENT THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE V.V.S. RAO WRIT PETITION No.24592 of 2006 ORDER: The petitioners, having purchased different extents of land in survey Nos.155, 156, 158, 159 and 160 situated at Ailapur Village from different persons under different registered sale deeds, presented the documents for registration before the respondent, who though initially received the documents, kept the same pending without any valid reason. Aggrieved by the same, the present writ petition is filed. Heard learned Counsel for the petitioners and learned Assistant Government Pleader for Revenue (General-T). It is no doubt true that when a document is presented, it is incumbent on the part of the Registering Officer to examine the same with reference to Sections 31 and 36 of the Registration Act, 1908 (the Act, for brevity) and/or Rules 26 and 58 of the Andhra Pradesh Rules under the Act. This aspect of the matter was considered by my learned brother Hon’ble Sri Justice A.Gopal Reddy in W.P.No.15199 of 2004 dated 01.09.2004. Following the above, this writ petition is disposed of directing the respondent or any other Registering Officer to accept the documents presented by the petitioners and to consider the same for registration. Be it noted, if for any reason, the documents presented are 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 the petitioners have any grievance, they may file appeal before the appellate authority i.e., District Registrar under Section 72 of the Act. Thereafter, if any adverse order is passed by the Appellate Authority, the petitioners can file suit under Section 77 of the Act. No costs. _____________ (V.V.S.RAO, J) 27th November, 2006 ghn
