By consent, this writ petition is taken up for final disposal.

2. The grievance expressed by the petitioner is that inspite of his Agreement of Sale dated 20.01.2015 in Doc.No.2015008 presented for registration, on the strength of the Registered Power of Attorney dated 18.01.2015, the respondent neither returned the document nor registered the same and hence, came forward with this writ petition.
