State cannot take a plea of adverse possession against the citizen.

Sachin Bhatia (Expert) 30 January 2010
Land can be acquired either by the state or the central government for the purposes listed under state and central list respectively unless the central government delegates the task to the state government under article 258(1) of the Constitution. The term â€œappropriate governmentâ€ in the act would imply the government weather centre or state that issues a notification under section 4 to acquire the land.

Mr. Sachin is correct

Perhaps, the matter could be viewed from another angle. As per the Constitution (Article 300A), no person can be deprived his property save by authority of law. The State's plea of adverse possession against its citizen amounts to seeking validation of an unconstitutional act. Law of limitation does not apply to illegal acts.
