Sirs/Madam,
I am 26 years old from coimbatore, tamilnadu. We are residing at our home (5 cents) which is under village panjayat.
The land falls under grama natham. My fathers grand-father,My gran-father, my father, and me are residing there continuously.(i.e more than 60 years and more). we dont have patta. my father pays electricity,land tax, water tax etc. Our home is located at a main street of the village.(residential area). Is it possible to get patta for the land? Is there any complication in that? is that complication could be solved by court? Please advice.

The answer depends on the policies prevailing locally.

Since your family resides in the said property for decades together and also you have proof of residence namely electricity connection, water tap connection and other tax receipts, you may apply for patta on the basis of long time residence.
There are chances to get patta soon because next year is the election year in Tamilnadu.
