Madras HC: Kelamangalam Sub Registrar Ordered to Expedite Document for Vasudevan

Here's the scoop on a recent court decision from Madras. The case involves P.R. Vasudevan, who wanted an official copy of a document. The court, led by Judge Senthilkumar Ramamoorthy, has now given a clear order to speed things up.

Background of the Case

P.R. Vasudevan, living in Hosur, Krishnagiri District, filed a request with the court. He wanted the Kelamangalam Sub Registrar Office to give him an official copy of a document registered as "others memo copy No.1/2025." He had already asked for this on August 14, 2025, but hadn't received an answer.

What the Court Decided

On January 20, 2026, Judge Senthilkumar Ramamoorthy looked into the case. The main issue was the delay in getting an official copy of the document. The court ordered the Sub Registrar to take care of Vasudevan's request within three weeks.

"The request would be considered and resolved within three weeks."

• Lawyers: Mr. S.C. Vishwanth for Vasudevan and Mr. U. Baranidharan, the Special Government Lawyer, for the people responsible.
