 3]             The submission on behalf of the petitioners is that the 

 petitioners were not given notice of any default under Section 45 

 of the Act of 1963. It is further submitted that Rule 41 of the Rules 

 of 1967 is deleted on 18/12/2017 and this is not noticed by the 

 District   Deputy   Registrar   while   passing   the   impugned   order   on 

 22/12/2017. I find that the grievance made by the petitioners that 

 effect of deletion of Rule 41 of the Rules of 1967 is not considered 

 by the District Deputy Registrar, is justified.  



                In view of the above , the following order is passed:-

                                           O R D E R

1] The impugned order is set aside. 2] The matter is remitted to the respondent no. 2- District Deputy Registrar for fresh consideration.
