JUDGMENT
Petitioner is aggrieved by the inaction on the part of the 3rd respondent in effecting transfer of registry in favour of the petitioner and acceptance of tax pursuant therein.
2. Learned Government Pleader would submit that a report has been preferred by the Village Officer to the effect that there is a general ban for effecting transfer of registry in view of a report submitted by the Taluk Surveyor dated 01.11.2025, wherein, an allegation with respect to issuance of a patta with a corrected survey number is made.
3. Having heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Government Pleader, this Court is of the opinion that the said general ban vide report dated 01.11.2025 need not stand in the way of transfer of registry being effected in favour of the petitioner. The rights, if any, of the State can be reserved by making appropriate directions in this regard.
