Issuance of notice to the respondents 3 and 4 is dispensed with. 2.The petitioner apprehends that the respondents 3 and 4 may present deed of conveyance in respect of the petition mentioned properties before the second respondent. The petitioner, therefore, wants this Court to restrain the second respondent from registering any such document.
3.This writ petition is not maintainable. The petitioner has to file an injunction suit or a declaratory suit before the jurisdictional Civil Court to restrain the private respondents herein from dealing with the properties. If any such suit is filed by the writ petitioner, the same shall 2/4
