It is submitted by learned counsel for petitioner that petitioner submitted General Power of Attorney dated 02.07.2025 before the second respondent and he was given a temporary T.P.No.224938939. However, the same was not considered. Hence, petitioner submitted an application dated 03.07.2025 to register the above General Power of Attorney. Since the said 2/6 https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis W.P. No.29159 of 2025 application was not considered, the petitioner submitted another application dated 04.07.2025 to register the said General Power of Attorney. However, the same is kept pending. Hence, the petitioner has filed the present writ petition. 4. At the outset, it was submitted by the learned Special Government Pleader that it is not clear as to whether the petitioner had even presented the above General Power of Attorney dated 02.07.2025 before the second respondent although there is an averment in the affidavit that the General Power of Attorney was in fact presented on the very same day. On the other hand, he would submit that petitioner had not yet presented General Power of Attorney. If the General Power of Attorney dated 02.07.2025 is presented before the second respondent, the same would be registered, if it is otherwise in order. If, for any reason, the Sub Registrar is of the view that the registration ought to be refused, he would do so after assigning reasons, which was agreed to by the learned counsel for the petitioner. 5. In view thereof, if the General Power of Attorney dated 02.07.2025 was already presented, and the same is kept pending, the second respondent shall register the same, if it is otherwise in order, in accordance with law.
