Demolition of my house under the musi river project

(Querist) 11 October 2024 This query is : Resolved 
Dear Sir/Madam,

I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to seek legal advice regarding the impending demolition of my house under the Musi River Project.

I have been residing in my house for the last 40 years, which is located near the riverbed. Recently, I have been informed that my property is likely to be demolished as part of the ongoing project. I would like to understand the due process of law in such cases and what legal recourse is available to me.

Given the long history of my residence and potential concerns regarding land ownership, I request guidance on the following:

1. Legal status of my property – How can I verify if my land is marked as encroached or government land?


2. Notice and procedure – What is the correct legal procedure that the authorities must follow before initiating demolition?


3. Objection and legal remedy – If I wish to challenge the demolition or seek compensation, what steps can I take?


4. Compensation or rehabilitation – Are there any schemes or compensatory measures that I may be entitled to?



I would appreciate your guidance on the next steps to protect my property rights and ensure that due process is followed. I look forward to your legal advice at your earliest convenience.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Yours sincerely,
Syed Sirajuddin

If the Government takes your land for the project, it will compensate you according to the Market Values fixed by the MV Committee. However, you consult a local lawyer with the notice you have received.

The government should issue a notification to all the residents about the proposed land acquisition and announce the compensation also towards the land proposed to acquire along with any other benefits being offered in this regard.
Who informed you about this, is it a hearsay information?
You can revert with the details for further opinions.
