contact a local lawyer . you have paid rs 2 lakhs in cash and it is mentioned in agreement that in event permission not received money would be refunded . issue legal notice

Such a document is not required to be registered, and can be relied upon to recover money, after serving a legal notice - file a recovery suit.
