3. Before the writ Court, the disputed questions of fact had arisen where
the respondents 4 to 7 have released their 4/5th share in the property by
including false recitals in release deed dated 28.04.2010 and it is t he further
case of the appellant / petitioner that, his father was an Ex-ser vice man and his
grandfather’s property has been inherited by his father.
4. When that being the position, who is the real owner of the propert y in
question, how his father has inherited the property from whom how the property
devolved to and in favour of him, who are all the other respondents, how the
release deed has been executed and registered, whether any false recitals have
been made in the release deed dated 28.04.2010, these are all completely factual
matrix which have to be gone into and decided only by the civil Court by letting
evidence by both the parties in a competent civil suit.
5. Therefore, all these disputed questions of facts since cannot be deci ded
by the High Court under Article 226 of the Constitution of India, the le arned
Judge has dismissed the writ petition by driving the writ petitioner t o go before
the civil Court through the impugned order dated 04.12.2025.
6. We are in complete agreement with the said view taken by t he writ
Court, therefore, the order impugned passed by the writ Court is to be sustained

as we find no reason to interfere with the same, as a result of which, the Writ
Appeal fails and hence, it is dismissed. However, there shall be no order as to
costs.
