This query is : Resolved
The query with respect to the documents required for establishing the history of a house as part of a sale transaction.
1) X, the owner of the house offered the sale of the house to Y. X has provided the documents of the house to Y at the initial stage of the transaction for verification. Those documents do not establish the history of the property. So, Y requested X for the same. As a part of this ,X has made an application to RDO requesting ‘Pahni’ documents two months before present day. It has been two months, but the RDO has not provided the document so requested till today. Upon repeated reminders, the staffs of the RDO are delaying the process in providing the requested documents saying that it is not so easy to get those documents; and it takes so much of time. ------------------Now, the query with respect to the 1st listed issue is a) what does ‘Pahni’ document mean? How does it help in establishing the history of the documents? and b)As said by the staff of the RDO, why does it take so much of time in obtaining those documents?
2) On the other side, Y the other party to whom the property has been offered applied for loan to a bank. As part of that, initially the bank requested for NOC which has been submitted. Thereafter, the legal dept of the Bank requested for a Patta document to be issued by RDO establishing the Possession rights of X of the said property at the addressed location. The legal dept of the bank has returned the loan file as the Y could not submit the requested patta document within that time line. -------------------Now query with respect to this issue is – Whether Patta document and Pahni Document are one and the same? If not, what does each of them mean? Can the submission of Pahni document of the house to the bank is sufficient replace to Patta? Please clarify.
3) Also. Please explain what is the best way of getting the document related to the property from the staff of the RDO without any further delay, because it is delaying everything and if this continues the loan file may be closed in the bank. If there is any fast way possible please provide the details.
4) And how do we know the history of the property? And how do we know that the property can be bought without any hesitation? Is an EC sufficient for the same?

This quarry has again been raised but with some additional questions. No problem.
As stated earlier you move an application under RTI Act before RDO office asking the status of your application and requisite time frame fo dispose off such applications. Pahni and Patta documents are same which are required for assessing the non-exuberance of the property and for establishing its chain of ownership. the history of any property can be ascertained with the help of its ownership documents and enteries made in the concerned departments qua those properties.
