... RESPONDENTS
THIS WRIT PETITION IS FILED UNDER ARTICLES
226 AND 227 OF CONSTITUTION OF INDIA PRAYING TO
DIRECT THE RESPONDENTS TO REGISTER AND
CONVEY THE SCHEDULE SITE BEARING NO.38, IN E-1
BLOCK, 1ST PHASE, VAJRAGIRI TOWNSHIP,
RAMANAGARA TQ. AND DISTRICT IN THE NAME OF
THE PETITIONER FORTHWITH.
THIS WRIT PETITION COMING ON FOR
PRELIMINARY HEARING THIS DAY, THE COURT
PASSED THE FOLLOWING:
ORDER
The petitioner is before this Court praying that a mandamus be issued to the respondents to register and 3 convey the schedule site bearing No.38 in 'E' Block, 1st Phase, Vajragiri Township, Ramanagara Taluk and District.
2. The learned counsel no doubt contends that the petitioner has paid the entire sale consideration and a site has been allotted and possession certificate has been issued by the respondent No.1. It is also contended that the approval of the plan has been obtained from respondent No.3. Even if these averments and contentions are accepted to be true, since the sale deed is required to be executed by the respondent No.1 and since respondent No.1 cannot be considered as an authority as provided under Article 12 of the Constitution, a writ petition seeking for issue of mandamus would not lie before this Court. If at all the petitioner is to seek any relief, it is before an appropriate forum in view of the contractual obligations between the parties.
4
3. Hence, reserving liberty to the petitioner to avail her remedies in accordance with law, the petition stands disposed of. Registry to return the papers, if any sought for by the learned counsel for the petitioner.
