Dear Sir,
My father had purchased a 60 x40 feet site in1967 located in district headquarters of Tumkur city in Karnataka state from a reputed layout developer approved by the Tumkur municipal corporation and DC at that time and no civil construction was undertaken till this day on this property.
This property after my father demise in 1989 was subsequently was transferred jointly among his 5 children's ,the property tax for empty site was paid till 2015
Now the property has been acquired by Government PU College in2018-19
Now our MAIN QUESTION for you is can we get COMPENSATION from the Govt PU college and if so by what means.
Thank you.

You will get compensation as per Government rates i.e. average Market Value for the last three years. But why did not take action against the developer to date?

The College, even if a Government College, cannot acquire the land by itself. There is a due process to be followed in serving the notices on the interested persons and passing of award by the Collector or the Land Acquisition Officer. If not, this is a pure case of encroachment. You need to take action accordingly.
