3.On behalf of the Opponent, Mr. Butala points out that prima
facie the Petitioner has proceeded on the basis of certain forged
documents. At page 50 is a document dated 5th January 2005 of
Shri Kolkeshwar Mahadev Mandir Vaidik Hindu Vivah Kendra,
Naigaon, Mumbai 400 014 purporting to attest to the marriage
between Sangita and Sanjay. This document supposedly has
Sanjay’s signature on it. On the reverse of this document, there is a
reference to the accompanying documents examined by the Kendra
before issuing the certificate. One of these is a Maharashtra
Government Notification, a copy of which is at page 47. That
Notification is, however, of 15th to 21st October 2009, i.e., four
years after the date of the certificate issued by Shri Kolkeshwar
Mahadev Mandir Vaidik Hindu Vivah Kendra, and over a year after
Sanjay died on 7th July 2008. Sanjay could not, therefore, ever have
signed the document at page 50, nor could that document ever have
referred to a Government Notification that came four years later.
\Whether or not the document is fraudulent is a matter that would
have to be considered at an appropriate time in an appropriate
proceeding. What is, however, clear that this is not an issue that can
possibly be adjudicated in a Heirship Petition with its limited scope
for enquiry.
