K S MURTHY ASSOCIATES Counsel for the Respondent(S): 1. GHANTA SRIDHAR 2. GP FOR REGISTRATION AND STAMPS 4 The Court made the following Judgment: (Per Hon’ble Sri Justice R Raghunandan Rao) The respondent Nos.1 and 2 herein had filed W.P.No.14346 of 2025 contending that respondent No.5, in the writ petition, was seeking to execute certain documents of alienation and register the same in relation to land in Sy.No.399/1 and 339/B and the same is not permissible in view of the orders of the Hon’ble High Court of Madras in C.S.No.124 of 1994 vide its order dated 19.02.2024. The respondent Nos.1 and 2 had sought a writ of Mandamus to be issued declaring the action of the Sub-registrar in receiving such documents despite the representation, dated 06.06.2025 of the respondent Nos.1 and 2 to be illegal. A learned Single Judge of this Court, by an order, dated 18.06.2025 had directed the official respondents not to entertain any document for registration for one day. This order was subsequently modified to maintain status-quo with regard to the registration. 2. Aggrieved by the said orders of the learned Single Judge, the appellants herein, who are third parties to the writ petition, had preferred the present writ appeal. 3. Heard Sri K.S.Murthy, learned senior counsel appearing for the appellant and Sri Ghanta Rama Raor, learned senior counsel appearing for the respondents 1 and 2. 4. It appears that there are certain disputes as to the persons who can represent respondent No.5 in the writ petition as well as the question of whether the properties in question have been transferred out pursuant to the orders of the Hon’ble High Court of Madras in C.S.No.124 of 1994. 5 5. While these disputes would have to be resolved, in an appropriate forum, this Court is now informed that the writ petition itself has been closed, in view of a statement made in the counter-affidavit filed by the Sub-Registrar, Markapur Town, Prakasam District to the effect that the properties have been incorporated in the prohibitory list maintained under Section 22-A of the Registration Act, 1908. 6. The same submission had also been made before this Court on 11.11.2025. This Court, upon such submission, had required the learned Assistant Government Pleader to produce the proceedings, under which, the land in dispute, had been placed in the prohibitory list. 7. The learned Assistant Government Pleader has today produced the report generated and attested by Joint Sub Registrar-I, Markapur. Under this report, it is stated that the land in Sy.No.339/B had been placed in the prohibitory list on account of pendency of O.S.No.2 of 2021 before the Junior Civil Judge, Markapur, W.P.No.6172 of 2018 pending before this Court, O.S.No.332 of 2017 pending before the Principal Junior Civil Judge, Markapur and O.S.No.166 of 2018 pending before the Senior Civil Judge, Markapur. 8. The report also states that the land in Sy.No.399/1 was included in the prohibitory list on account of pendency of O.S.no.384 of 2024 before the Principal Junior Civil Judge, Markapur. 9. The learned Assistant Government Pleader would also submit that no separate proceedings have been issued for incorporating these lands in the prohibitory list. It is stated that these lands were included in the prohibitory list 6 on the basis of pendency of the above litigations and the injunction orders granted by the civil Court. 10. In the circumstances, nothing further remains in the writ appeal and it is disposed of leaving it open to the appellants to avail their remedies against such entries made in the prohibitory list. There shall be no order as to costs. As a sequel, pending miscellaneous applications, if any, shall stand closed. ________________________ R. RAGHUNANDAN RAO, J ________________ T.C.D.
