I AM THE YOUNGEST OF MY ALL THE SEVEN (MAJOR) SISTERS. OUR FATHER HAD EXPIRED WHEN I WAS UNDER MY CHILDHOOD. OUR MOTHER HAD PURCHASED A LAND FROM SOMEONE, SAY "X" (WHO IS NO MORE AND HE HAS NO LEGAL HEIRS AT PRESENT) IN ASANSOL, WEST BENGAL AND THE SALE DEED IS IN HER NAME. SINCE THEN, PRESCRIBED LAND REVENUE AND MUNICIPAL HOUSE TAX HAS BEEN DEPOSITED REGULARLY TILL DATE. UNFORTUNATELY, OUR MOTHER COULD NOT GET THE SAME LAND AND THE HOUSE CONSTRUCTED THEREON MUTATED IN HER NAME AND SHE EXPIRED IN 1993. NOW, THE SAID LAND WITH STRUCTURE THEREON IS GOING TO BE ACQUIRED BY THE MINISTRY OF RAILWAY UNDER THE RAILWAY (AMENDMENT) ACT 2008 AND THE FINAL NOTIFICATION IN THIS REGARD HAS BEEN PUBLISHED (COPY ATTACHED). THE LAND RECORD IS IN THE NAME OF "X". WE HAVE ONLY SALE DEED, RECEIPTS OF LAND REVENUE AND HOUSE TAX DEPOSITED AS WELL SITE PLAN. MY QUESTION IS WHAT LEGAL DOCUMENTS WE NEED TO GET ARRANGED OR WHAT LEGAL STEPS ARE REQUIRED TO GET THE COMPENSATION UNDER THE SAID RAILWAY (AMENDMENT) ACT.

Mother's Death Certificate and Legal Heir Certificate from the Competent Authority would be sufficient for the purpose.
