This writ petition has been filed challenging the impugned refusal check slip dated 28.12.2024 issued by the respondent and for a consequential direction to the respondent to register the supplementary trust deed presented for registration.
2. Heard Mr.S.Chandrasekar, learned counsel for petitioner and Mr.A.Selvendran, learned Special Government Pleader appearing for respondent.
3. The refusal check slip has been issued on the ground that the original document was registered in Karnataka and hence, the respondent has refused to entertain the supplementary trust deed and directed the petitioner to approach the concerned Sub-Registrar in Karnataka and register the same.
4. In the considered view of this Court, the trust forms part of Hosur jurisdiction and therefore, the respondent has to necessarily entertain the supplementary trust deed. The original trust deed was registered in the year 1965, at which point of time, it was within the 2/4
jurisdiction of Sub-Registrar, Karnataka. Now that it is coming within the jurisdiction of the respondent, the respondent has to necessarily entertain and register the supplementary trust deed, if it is otherwise in order.
This writ petition is allowed with the above direction. No costs. Consequently, connected miscellaneous petition is closed. 25.04.2025 Index: Yes/no Speaking Order/Non-Speaking Order gm To The Sub Registrar Hosur, Krishnagiri District 3/4
