He also submits that the amount has already been paid by the petitioner and in para 20 of the counter affidavit, it has been stated that the respondent- Board is ready to execute the final lease deed in favour of the petitioner, if the petitioner approaches the respondent- Board with respect to the final transfer of the property in question by way of lease deed in the prescribed format of the Board. He also submits that this counter affidavit is of the year 2013 and in view of that, if it is not executed, the Board will do so. 4.
