The present application is filed by the applicants / plaintiffs to

Deed dated 12.06.1950 from Telugu language to English and pass

appropriate orders.

2. The learned counsel for the applicants / plaintiffs submits that

the suit has been filed for declaration and injunction on the ground that

father and plaintiffs' father on 12.04.1949, wherein the property was

allotted to the plaintiffs' grand father and after his lifetime, the property

will devolve upon his son's male descendants, viz., the plaintiffs and

their sons. Thereafter, a partition deed dated 14.06.1949 was entered

between the plaintiffs' father and grand father, in which also the suit

property was allotted to plaintiffs' grand father. Further, on 12.06.1950, a

registered settlement deed was executed by the applicants' grand

property was given to the son and grandson to be taken after his

lifetime, thus, the applicants have become absolute owners of the

property. Since the respondents / defendants have filed the written

statement disputing the said contention and the said settlement deed is

written in regional language, viz., Telugu, the plaintiffs have come

forward with this petition seeking the aforementioned prayer.

owners of the suit schedule property in pursuant to the registered

settlement deed dated 12.06.1950 and the same is in regional

language, viz., Telugu, it is just and necessary to ascertain the said fact

by translating the same into English language, hence the present

application is allowed.

5. Accordingly, the Interpretor of this Court is directed to translate

the said settlement deed dated 12.06.1950, which is in Telugu language

to that of the english language, preferably, on or before 20.06.2022 and
