Hello, I am a house and there are two ways to my house. One at the frontside of the house and one at the backside. The backside road is a small road where only a single person can walk at a time. The one at the front is a wide road where a 2 people can walk together at a same time, Earlier for a period of 14 years, this front road was used as a public road with 4 foot road and vehicles used to pass by. Later when one of my neighbour who is staying in front of us got an issue with her neighbour, with the permission of all of us, she constructed a cement wall over the road with a promise that, she will remove the wall on our demand and the purpose of construction of wall was just for to scare her neighbor. But later when we asked, she demanded 25 lacks for demolishing the wall. now I I have a small in front of my home and I need to do something as soon as possible as my son's marriage is coming in this year. What can I do in such a situation ? what rights I have and how can I get back our 4 feet public road back from her ?

It is agreed that you have some problems with your neighbor in this regard.
It is not known that on what basis she had built the wall blocking the way, hence you may collect the property related papers and consult an experienced lawyer in the local and obtain a proper opinion to solve the issue either amicably or legally
