The registering authority declined to register the documents on the ground that the properties belong to Sri Vysyaraja Mutt which has its headquarters in Karnataka. Refusal check slip was put to challenge in writ proceedings. The learned single Judge vide order dated 28.01.2022 dismissed the writ petitions. Challenging the same, these Writ Appeals have been filed. 3.We are of the view that the learned single Judge was right in dismissing the Writ Petitions and interference with the said order is not warranted. However, the learned counsel appearing for the appellants submitted that the appellants belong to middle class families and they were misled into purchasing the lands in question. We made it clear that it is for the appellants to enter into some reasonable understanding with 29/32 https://www.mhc.tn.gov.in/judis W.A.(MD)Nos.43 to 56 of 2022the Sri Vysyaraja Mutt. The case was adjourned on more than one occasion for the said purpose. 4.Today, when the matter was taken up for hearing, the learned counsel appearing for the sixth respondent Mutt submitted that if the appellants agree that the sites on which the superstructures have been built belong to the Mutt and they are willing to enter into a lease agreement with the Mutt in respect of the land, the same would be favourably considered on appropriate terms and conditions. As and when the occupants want to transfer the superstructure to the third parties, they must get “No Objection Certificate” from the Mutt. The learned counsel appearing for the appellants are agreeable to the aforesaid terms and conditions. 5.We make it clear that under no circumstance, the sites / land in question will be the subject matter of any kind of conveyance or transfer as it belongs to a religious institution.
