You stated that "as security for O.S. XXX/2014 case No. XXX/2014 as per the order of the Hon'ble ..... Munseef Court," is this case disposed of? The court may impound the unregistered agreement, but you must consult a local advocate and take his service for your case.

The unregistered agreement is not enforceable in law, hence she cannot maintain any against you on the basis of this agreement.
Besides the agreement appears to be barred by limitation, hence it is infructuous now.

Munsif Court permitted to partition property by judgement.but plaintiffs didn't file EP for execution yet.so the property is still undivided.i couldn't pay monthly instalment yet.so can she go to court on basis of this agreement which executed by 2020.
Advocate Bhartesh goyal (Expert) 04 January 2024
No legal action can be initiated on basis of agreement dated 24-02-2020 as barred by limitation.
T. Kalaiselvan, Advocate Online (Expert) 17 January 2024
If it is a time barred claim then the it may not be enforceable.
