The learned counsel for the respondents submits that the letter as contained in memo no. 371 dated 13.06.2016 has been issued by the respondent no. 3 to implement the direction of the State Government as per the letter no. 195 dated 19.02.2016, keeping in view the prevailing situation in the District of Deoghar to have proper check on fraudulent acts of the local land mafias and to avert any further scam.

The petitioners claim to have acquired the landed property in question through registered sale deed and intend to sale the same. The petitioners have brought on record the copies of the relevant documents pertaining to the land in question such as sale deed, order of mutation and rent receipts issued with respect to the said land. 7. This court in catena of judgments has held that under the Registration Act, 1908 there are only three basic requirements i.e., (a) there must be valid presentation; (b) valid execution; and (c) adequate stamp duty and if all the said three conditions are complied with, there is no option with the registering authority but to register the document. A Division Bench of this court in L.P.A No. 321 of 2012 (State of Jharkhand Vs. Pritindra Narayan Roy & Ors.) has held that one cannot get title merely by registered sale deed and it is an instrument only of transfer of what is possessed by the vendor and nothing more than that. The title is not created only by sale deed but it is created in favour of the person from whom he purchased the property subject to foundational fact that the seller should be the owner and should have saleable right. It is also a well-known principle “buyers beware” which also indicates that if a buyer purchases any property without enquiring about the title of the property, he does so at his/her own risk. 8. In view of the aforesaid discussion, the District Level Committee headed by the respondent no. 3 -the Deputy Commissioner, Deoghar is directed to issue LPC for the land in question in favour of the petitioners within fifteen days from the date of receipt/production of a copy of this order. 9. The writ petition is accordingly disposed of.
