4. It is quite clear from the refusal check slip and also the written instructions given by the respondent that there were sufficient reasons for the respondent to issue the refusal check slip dated 09.10.2024 and the same does not suffer from any illegality. This is more so, because a writ petition has been filed in W.P.No.10713/2025 questioning the Power of Attorney itself and for initiating proceedings under Section 83 of the Registration Act against the petitioner herein, who has been shown as the third respondent in that writ petition.
