Property registration requires clear title; ongoing litigation prevents valid transfer of rights. Courts uphold registrars' refusals when ownership is contested.
The registration authority cannot refuse to register sale deeds based solely on pending civil litigation, as the authority lacks the adjudicatory power to determine title disputes.
