THE HON'BLE THE CHIEF JUSTICE UJJAL BHUYAN
AND
THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE N. TUKARAMJI
WRIT APPEAL No.394 of 2023
JUDGMENT: (Per the Hon'ble the Chief Justice Ujjal Bhuyan)
Heard Mr. V.S.R.Anjaneyulu, learned Senior Counsel
appearing for Mr. V.Satyanarayana Prasad, learned
counsel for the appellant and Mr. S.Sridhar, learned
counsel for respondent No.1/writ petitioner. We have
also heard Ms. Chandana Adamala, learned Assistant
Government Pleader, Revenue Department (Stamps &
Registration) for respondents No.2 and 3.
2. This writ appeal is directed against the order dated
27.09.2022 passed by the learned Single Judge disposing
of W.P.No.36420 of 2022 filed by respondent No.1 as the
writ petitioner.
3. Respondent No.1 filed the related writ petition
assailing the inaction of Sub-Registrar, Malkajgiri,
Medchal-Malkajgiri District in considering her
representations dated 18.06.2019 and 26.08.2022 with
regard to rectification of her name in the encumbrance
certificate.
4. Without entering into the merits of the case, learned
Single Judge disposed of the writ petition by directing the
Sub-Registrar to consider and dispose of the
representations of respondent No.1 dated 18.06.2019 and
26.08.2022 in accordance with law within a period of four
weeks.
5. Learned Senior Counsel for the appellant submits
that appellant was arrayed as respondent No.3 in the writ
proceedings. Appellant has a claim to the land in respect
of which respondent No.1 sought the relief. In this
connection, though suit and first appeal preferred by the
appellant have been dismissed, the related second appeal
is pending before this Court. Had an opportunity been
granted to the appellant, all these facts would have been
brought to the notice of the learned Single Judge which are
relevant for a full and complete adjudication of the writ
petition.
6. On the other hand, learned counsel for respondent
No.1 submits that order of the learned Single Judge cannot
be said to be adverse to the appellant. Learned Single
Judge had only directed the Sub-Registrar to consider the
representations of respondent No.1. However, as a matter
of fact, learned counsel has submitted that following the
order of the learned Single Judge, Sub-Registrar had
considered the representations of respondent No.1 but has
rejected the same.
7. Be that as it may, we are of the view that the matter
should be remitted back to the file of the learned Single
Judge having roster to rehear the matter and thereafter
pass an appropriate order in accordance with law.
8. Consequently, we set aside the impugned order dated
27.09.2022 and remand the matter back to the learned
Single Judge having roster to rehear the writ petition and
thereafter pass an appropriate order in accordance with
law.
9. Writ appeal is accordingly allowed.
Miscellaneous applications pending, if any, shall
stand closed. However, there shall be no order as to costs.
