ORDER
This writ petition has been filed by the petitioner challenging the impugned order dated 11.08.2025, in Na.Ka.No.247/2025 passed by the 1 st respondent.
2.Learned counsel for the petitioner would submit that the petitioner made a objection to register the sale deed whichever presented by the 2 nd respondent in favour of the 3 rd respondent since the 2 nd respondent has only life interest over the subject property. Despite submitting the objection letter, the 1 st respondent registered the sale deed presented by the 2 nd respondent and issued notice to the petitioner to appear before him for enquiry on 31.07.2025. After conducting enquiry, the 2 nd respondent concluded that the 2 nd respondent has 1/4 th share in the subject property and passed the impugned order dated 11.08.2025. Aggrieved over the same, the present writ petition has been filed.
3.Learned Government Advocate appearing for the 1 st respondent and learned counsel appearing for the respondents 2 & 3, would submit that, in the present case, since the property was already got registered, now the recourse available to the petitioner is to approach the Civil Court. 4.The issue in the present case is pertaining to the commencement/given effect date of the Will dated 22.06.1983 and according to the petitioner, the sale deed was executed by the 2 nd respondent when the testator has given only life interest to the 2 nd respondent to enjoy the subject property.
5.Considering the submissions made by either parties, this Court is of the view that all the issues raised by the petitioner can be agitated by the Civil Court by adducing the evidence. When such being the case, this Court cannot entertain the present writ petition.
6.In the result, the writ petition is dismissed. No costs. Consequently, connected miscellaneous petition is closed.
