Therefore, he made a representation as early as 24.05.2010 to change the patta in his name. He has also produced 'No Objection Certificate' from other legal heirs. According to him, another brother by name Selvaraj has already died and there is no legal heir for him and therefore, he wants the patta transfer to be considered by the Tahsildar. As it has not been considered, he has come forward with the present Writ Petition. 2.The learned Additional Government Pleader took notice and he would contend that the patta transfer will be considered after due enquiry and after issuing notices to the interested parties, if any and appropriate orders will be passed. 3.By consent, the Writ Petition itself is taken up for final disposal. https://hcservices.ecourts.gov.in/hcservices/ 2 4.
