Telangana High Court (K. Sarath J., 12.08.2025) in W.P. No. 22743 of 2025: Three petitioners had sought a writ of mandamus directing Respondent No.2, the Sub Registrar, Medchal-Malkajgiri District, to process, register and release a Gift Deed over a residential house bearing Municipal No. 17-849 (74 sq. yds.) at Indira Nehru Nagar, Malkajgiri Mandal, Survey No. 844/1, covered under Assignment Patta Proceedings dated 23.08.2015 issued in the name of Smt. Kudikala Rajamani, alleging the non-registration violated Articles 14, 21 and 300-A and the Registration Act. An interim application (IA No. 1 of 2025, Section 151 CPC) was also on file. When the matter came up for hearing, counsel for the petitioners sought permission to withdraw the writ petition with liberty to file a fresh one and made an endorsement to that effect. The Court accordingly dismissed the writ petition as withdrawn, granted liberty to file a fresh writ petition, and closed miscellaneous petitions, if any, with no order as to costs. No substantive issue of law was decided.
