As per the pleadings, defendant No.2 (registered owner of the Jeep in question, which was registered in the office of defendant No.3) executed an agreement to sell dated 07.03.2000 (Ex.P1) in favour of defendant No.1 and by virtue of the aforesaid agreement to sell defendant No.1 became owner of the Jeep in question. Defendant No.1 further vide agreement to sell dated 23.08.2003 (Ex.P2) agreed to sell the said Jeep to the plaintiff for a sale consideration of �85,000 and received a sum of �50,000 as earnest money from him at the time of execution of the agreement to sell dated 23.08.2003 and delivered possession of the Jeep in question to him. Since defendant No.2 was the registered owner of the Jeep, therefore it was agreed that the balance sale consideration of �35,000 would be paid within one month i.e. upto 23.09.2003 on receipt of ‘No Objection Certificate’ and Sale Letter from defendant No.2. It was further agreed that defendant No.1 will get the ‘No Objection Certificate’ and other documents with regard to transfer of the Jeep in question from defendant No.2 at his own responsibility. Though the plaintiff4appellant was always ready and willing to perform his part of the contract, defendant No.2 was not transferring the Jeep in question in his name on one pretext or the other. The appellant also showed his readiness and willingness by presenting himself in the office of Sub Registrar, Narnaul on 22.09.2003. A legal notice was also sent for transferring the Jeep in question but defendant No.1 instead of transferring the Jeep in question in the name of plaintiff, lodged a false complaint against him with the Narnaul Police. The said complaint was cancelled being false.
