JUDGMENT

(Dated this the 12^th day of January 2026)

The petitioner availed a personal loan of 50,000/- from the 3^rd respondent, which subsequently fell into default and consequently, arbitration proceedings were initiated by the respondent as Arb.Ref. No.50/2023. The Arbitrator passed an order dated 12.06.2023 permitting conditional attachment of the petitioner's property. The said order was directly communicated to the Sub Registrar, Chengamanadu, and the Village Officer, Kunnukara, resulting in an entry in the Encumbrance Certificate. Subsequently, the petitioner cleared all outstanding dues payable to the 3^rd respondent and obtained Ext.P3 No Due Certificate confirming that the petitioner has paid all amounts towards the loan account and there is no further amount due from him. However, despite full settlement, the attachment entry continues to subsist in the registration and revenue records, as the authorities have expressed inability to remove it without a court order.

2. This writ petition has been filed by the petitioner seeking a writ of mandamus or any other appropriate writ, order, or direction to the 1^st and 2^nd respondents, to efface and remove the entry of attachment made
