3.I have heard the learned senior counsel and the other learned counsel appearing on behalf of the parties.

4.Upon hearing the learned counsel and perusing the records, it can be seen that the matter relates to the dispute with reference to induction of trustees and registering of documents relating to the trust. It is an inter-se dispute between the petitioners and the private respondents. Absolutely the same cannot be entertained within the jurisdiction under Article 226 of the Constitution of India and it is for the respective petitioners to ventilate their

grievances before the appropriate civil Court. Neither the Sub-Register nor this Court under Article 226 of the Constitution of India go into the validity of the documents which relates to the entitlement of the party who presented the document on that date, and co-operate other persons as the trustees etc which all arises out of the private dispute with reference to the trust deed in question. Therefore, keeping open the liberty of the petitioners as well as the respondents or any persons interested in the trust to approach the competent civil Court, these writ petitions stand disposed of. The issues are left open to be agitated before the civil Court. No costs. Consequently, connected miscellaneous petitions are closed.
