IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB & HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Civil Writ Petition No.22255 of 2010 Date of Decision : January 03, 2011. Pushkar Dass .....Petitioner versus State of Punjab and others .....Respondents CORAM : HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE SURYA KANT. Present : Mr.Saurabh Kaushik, Advocate, for the petitioner. -.- 1. Whether Reporters of Local papers may be allowed to see the judgment? 2. To be referred to the Reporters or not? 3. Whether the judgment should be reported in the Digest? --- Surya Kant, J. (Oral) The petitioner is aggrieved by the reply dated 28.9.2010 (Annexure P-3) given by and on behalf of the Sub Registrar, Malerkotla, to the petitioner's legal notice dated 20.8.2010 (Annexure P-1), whereby the replying authority has expressed its inability to register the transfer deed by virtue whereof the petitioner wants to transfer the immovable properties comprising agricultural land in favour of his sons. It appears from the record that the petitioner got the land in question from his Guru on his appointment as Mahant/Manager of the Dera. The Sub Registrar, Malerkotla having doubted the title of the petitioner qua the subject land as his personal property, has declined to register the transfer deed, as by virtue thereof, the property in question is C.W.P.No .22255 of 2010 2 not going to the hands of the next Mahant/Chela of the Dera. Having heard learned counsel for the petitioner at some length and keeping in view the disputed issues involved in the writ petition, I deem it appropriate to dispose of the same with liberty to the petitioner to approach the Collector, Sangrur, who in turn is directed to decide the petitioner's claim by passing a reasoned order within a period of one month from the date of receiving such representation/appeal from the petitioner. Ordered accordingly. Dasti. January 03, 2011 (SURYA KANT) Mohinder JUDGE
