3.Perusal of the order passed by the first respondent dated 21.10.2021 shows that the order has been passed based on the application submitted by the son of the petitioner seeking to change the patta in respect of the subject property in his name. The first respondent after conducting enquiry, had observed that since the documents relating to the subject property stands in the name of the father of the applicant/petitioner herein, the applicant has to change the same into his name by registered documents and then proceed further in accordance with law for obtaining separate patta in his name. 4.The petitioner without challenging the sale deeds executed by the fourth respondent had filed this writ petition, seeking to implement the directions issued by the first respondent.

Further, the first respondent had only directed the petitioner's son to get the documents registered in his name in respect of the subject property. Hence, it is for the petitioner or his son to get necessary documents registered in their favour.
