THIS PETITION, COMING ON FOR PRELIMINARY HEARING, THIS DAY, ORDER WAS MADE THEREIN AS UNDER: CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE E.S.INDIRESH ORAL ORDER Learned Additional Government Advocate accepts notice for respondents No.1 to 4. 2. In this writ petition, the petitioner is assailing the order dated 10.07.2025 (Annexure-F) passed by respondent No.2. 3. Having heard the learned counsel appearing for the parties and on careful consideration of the same would indicate that the petitioners herein have challenged MR - 4 - HC-KAR CNR: KAHC010538042026 NC: 2026:KHC:42767 WP No. 24619 of 2026 No.1/2003-2004, after lapse of twenty three years before the respondent No.3. In that view of the matter, as the petitioners are claiming right over the property based on the registered sale deed dated 29.04.1970, after period of forty three years, the respondent No.2 has rightly interfered with the order passed by the respondent No.3 relegating the petitioners to establish the right over the property in the manner known to law. 4. In that view of the matter, no interference is called for in this writ petition. Accordingly, writ petition is dismissed. SD/- (E.S.INDIRESH) JUDGE BKM List No.: 1 Sl No.: 35
