.....Respondents CORAM:- HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE S.J. VAZIFDAR, ACTING CHIEF JUSTICE HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE ARUN PALLI Present: Mr. Sher Singh Rathore, Advocate for the petitioner ..

S.J. VAZIFDAR, ACTING CHIEF JUSTICE (Oral):

The petitioner seeks an order directing the respondents to transfer the property in his name on the basis of an unprobated will. It is, however, stated that the will is registered. The respondents rejected the application on the ground that there is no policy to transfer a property in such circumstances. By a communication/order dated 22.09.2015, the petitioner was informed that he could file an appeal before the appellate authority i.e. the Managing Director of CITCO.

2.

The petitioner must, in the first instance, avail this alternate remedy. In the event of appeal not being decided on merits for any reason, the petitioner is at liberty to have this petition revived.

3.

The petition is accordingly disposed of.
