Judgment:

S.N.H. Zaidi, J. (Chairperson)

  1. Since Mr. Singh has appeared on behalf of the respondent No. 2. caveat is discharged. Heard parties' Counsel on admission. The appellants are aggrieved with the order dated 19.4.2012 of the learned Presiding Officer of DRT-II, Delhi, whereby the application (I.A. 522/2011) filed by the respondent No. 2 for the return of original title deeds deposited in O.A. No. 85/99 before the Tribunal below was allowed.

  2. Mr. Kashyap points out that the assignment of debt and liabilities by respondent No. 1 qua the secured assets to respondent No. 2 was challenged when the application for substitution of respondent No. 2 was considered by the Tribunal below and by order dated 4.9.2008, it was ordered that the question of the legality of assignment would be considered when the O.A. would be finally heard.

He also points out that in S.A. No. 43/2008 filed by the appellant the learned DRT in its order dated 8.10.2010 had observed that the registration of the deed of assignment at Gautam Budh Nagar in respect of a property of Hapur is an irregularity, which can be rectified by the assignee by getting it registered in the District having jurisdiction.
