And if the Opp. Parties fail to submit show cause or insufficient cause the Rule be made absolute and an appropriate order or writ in the nature of Mandamus may be issued commanding the Opp. Parties to issue appropriate Record-Of-Right indicating the land in controversy in his favour.

And issue any other appropriate order or orders, writ or writs as this Hon'ble Court thinks proper for the ends of Justices."
