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
In this writ petition, the petitioner is assailing the
order dated 12.11.2025 (Annexure-A) passed by the respondent No.2 and order dated 19.05.2025 (Annexure- E) passed by the respondent No.3.
2. It is contended by Sri Bhuvan K P, learned counsel for petitioner that the petitioner is claiming right over the property based on the registered sale deed dated 02.11.1950, and therefore, both the authorities have failed to consider the fact that, there is a delay in challenging the mutation entry made in favour of the petitioner, and therefore, sought for interference of this Court.
3. Per contra, Sri Girish Kumar B M, learned counsel appearing for the respondents No.5 to 10, submitted that the land in question claimed by the petitioner is in Sy. No.74. However, a suit is filed by the

petitioner in OS No.588/2026 before the competent Civil Court at Mysore, referring to the scheduled property as Sy.No.74/5. The learned counsel for respondents No.5 to 10 submitted that there is no perversity in the orders passed by the respondents No.2 and 3 in the impugned orders and accordingly, sought for dismissal of writ petition.
4. In light of the submissions made by the learned counsel for the parties and on careful consideration of the impugned orders would indicate that there is a discrepancy insofar as the alleged sale deed referred to by the learned counsel appearing for the petitioner. It is forthcoming from the prayer made in OS No.588/2026 before the competent Civil Court at Mysore that the petitioner has sought for rectification of the sale deed dated 02.11.1950. In that view of the matter, I am of the view that, no interference is called for in this petition.
