The sale deeds were executed on 16.7.2009 and 27.2.2010. The same were presented to respondent who allegedly refused to accept the sale deeds for registration. Therefore the present writ petition is filed seeking a writ of Mandamus directing the respondent to receive and register the documents executed by vendors and vendee. Be it noted 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 to 36 of the Act and/or Rules 26 to 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 01.9.2004. Following the above, the writ petition is disposed of directing respondent or any other Registering Officer to consider the document presented by the petitioner for registration. Be it noted, if for any reason, the document presented is 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 petitioner has any grievance, she may file appeal before the appellate authority under Section 72 of the Act. Thereafter, if any adverse order is passed by the appellate authority, the petitioner can file a suit under Section 77 of the Act. The writ petition is accordingly disposed of. ______________ (V.V.S.
