Hello All,
My father (NRI at that time) bought land in punjab in 1999. He registered the deed in his name and "Indraj Jamabandi" was also issued with Mutation number. We constructed house on that land in 2001 (still living there). Now we want to sell the house but the patwari says the land is not in my fathers name. He says the land does not exist in the records. I my self verified that the plot size is not present the khasra number. Patwari said the mutation request was rejected (No reason mentioned on the revenue records) soon after the sale of plot to my father(In 1999). Now we are living on that land from past 15-16 years and no one approched us saying the land belongs to them.
Note: The plot we purchased was from a colony that was made from agriculture land and ours was the first Registration deed of the land we bought(so no duplicate deeds I belive). My two uncles also bought land in the same colony 10 days before us but their mutation is done.
I want to ask you guys what is the legal way to get mutation done in my fathers name.( We can not sell the land without mutation).
Thank You.
