UPON hearing the counsel the Court made the following
O R D E R
1 Mr Neeraj Kumar Jain, learned senior counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioner submits that the High Court has committed an error in holding that though there was an admission of the title of the petitioner-plaintiff by the respondent (relevant portions of the admissions are set out at page āGā of the Synopsis), the provisions of Section 68 of the Evidence Act would apply and it was necessary for the petitioner to independently establish title to the property. Moreover, it has been submitted that the registered sale deed was produced on behalf of the petitioner and was marked in evidence.
2 Issue notice.
3 Mr Bharat Sangal, learned senior counsel appearing on behalf of the respondent accepts notice.
4 Counter affidavit be filed within a period of eight weeks. Rejoinder affidavit, if any, be filed within four weeks after the counter is filed.
5 Mr Bharat Sangal states that relevant parts of the deposition of the witnesses would be annexed together with the counter affidavit.
6 List the matter after twelve weeks.
7 Until further orders, no third party rights shall be created in respect of the suit property.
