The learned counsel for the petitioners has submitted that Sy.No.237 in Pudur Village, originally numbered as Sy.No.390 was a Government land admeasuring about Ac.40-00 gts and the same was assigned to about 8 individuals, wherein the petitioner No.1/plaintiff No.1 was assigned land to an extent of Ac.5.00 gts in Sy.No.390 (now Sy.No.237), vide Proceedings No. D1/309/62. It is stated that the Deputy Inspector of Survey and Land Records, Vikarabad, conducted survey of the said land and demarcated with specific boundaries on 17.11.2006. It is submitted that when the respondents/defendants tried to encroach the property belonging to the petitioners, under the guise of interim order passed in O.S.No.51 of 2007 for lands in Sy.Nos.235/1 and 235/2, the subject suit vide O.S.No.19 of 2010 was filed seeking declaration of title and consequential injunction.

Pending trial, the defendant No.3 sold lands in Sy.Nos.145, 235 and 236 under registered sale deeds wherein the southern portion of the property is shown as Sy.No.237. It is submitted that during the cross-examination of DW.1, when a suggestion was put to him with regard to execution of registered sale deeds vide document Nos.2206/2019, 2648/2019 and 2649/2019, all dated 13.05.2019 by his father, he denied the same and stated that he does not know whether Survey No.237 is situated at Pudur Village and he also does not know whether in the Sale Deed executed by defendant No.3 in favour of Nabeel Hussain in respect of land in Survey No.236, the Southern boundary is mentioned as land in Survey No.237. It is contended that the application filed by the petitioners seeking to receive certified copies of the said registered sale deeds, was erroneously dismissed by the trial Court on the ground that the said documents do not pertain to the suit property and that the defendant No.1 had pleaded ignorance of the said
