Satya Pal Anand vs State Of M.P. And Ors

The Supreme Court held that the appellant's application for cancellation of the Extinguishment Deed and subsequent sale deeds was not maintainable as the dispute was pending under the M.P. Cooperative Societies Act, 1960. The Court emphasized that the Sub-Registrar's jurisdiction was limited to registration and not to adjudicate on the validity of documents, as per Section 69 of the Registration Act, 1908. Consequently, the High Court's dismissal of the writ petition was upheld, affirming that the appellant must seek remedy through a competent court.
