JUSTICE R DEVDAS ORAL ORDER Learned High Court Government Pleader takes notice for respondent No.6-Tahsildar, Tarikere Taluk. Notice to respondent Nos.1 to 5 is not necessary for the following reasons. 2. The prayer in this writ petition is to issue a writ of mandamus directing respondent No.6-Tahsildar to keep the mutation proceedings in abeyance pursuant to the sale deed at Annexure-E, since the miscellaneous petition filed by the petitioner in C.Misc.No.5/2025 on the file of the learned Senior Civil Judge, Tarikere, is pending consideration for restoration of O.S.No.107/2024. - 4 - HC-KAR NC: 2026:KHC:4179 WP No. 1192 of 2026 3. Learned High Court Government Pleader raises an objection that in a civil proceeding, when the rights of the parties are yet to be decided, such directions cannot be given to the revenue authorities not to mutate the name of the purchaser in terms of a registered instrument. 4. There is substance in the submission of the learned High Court Government Pleader. When the matter regarding the title dispute is pending consideration before Civil Court and even if it is the allegation of the petitioner that during the pendency of the suit, the property in question was sold by one of the family members in favour of the third party, such directions cannot be issued to the revenue authorities, who are required to act in terms of Sections 128 and 129 of the Karnataka Land Revenue Act, 1964. On the other hand, the petitioners are at liberty to make an appropriate application before the Civil Court seeking necessary directions which can be incorporated in column No.11 of the RTC. 5. With these observations the writ petition stands disposed of. - 5 - HC-KAR NC: 2026:KHC:4179 WP No. 1192 of 2026 Learned High Court Government Pleader is permitted to file memo of appearance within a period of four weeks from today.
