2.The learned Counsel for the petitioner would submit that the petitioner's mother intended to settle the property standing in her name in S.No.388 in favour of the petitioner. When the petitioner and his mother approached the second respondent for executing the settlement deed, the same came to be refused by the second respondent citing the reason that the property in S.No.338 is under attachment in O.C.No.930 of 2018 dated 07.09.2018. In this regard, the petitioner has sent a representation to the respondents on 02.01.2023, seeking to cancel the wrong attachment order against the subject property. Since the said representation remains unconsidered till date, the petitioner has come up with the present Writ Petition.
