It is the further case of the petitioners that, since they had purchased the property under the Registered Sale Deed, it was necessary that the khata be transferred in their name. 4. In my view, since, the petitioners claims that their vendor’s name was registered as a khatedar and they had purchased the property under the Registered Sale Deed, it would be appropriate to direct the 2nd and 3rd respondent to consider the request of the petitioners and pass necessary orders within a period of one month from the date of the receipt of the copy of this order. 5.
