Hi Friends,
I would like to have your valued inputs for a subject which is quiet close to my heart and conscience :
Lately I have come to know that in the State of Haryana there are places where in the tillers of the Agricultural land are using and are in occupation of Agricultural land for more than 100 years as the land in question was given to their forefathers by the local villagers.
With this post I invite your view point for the following queries.
1. Whether in view of the provisions of law of adverse possession, transfer of property act or even otherwise they can go to the civil court seeking declaration to the effect that they are the lawful owner of the land?
2. Whether a Writ would lie for this purpose?
3. Whether they are supposed to approach the revenue authorities/chief financial secretary in this regard - under what provision of law?
4. If either/some of you have case law in the eventuality of similarly situated persons have gone to the court and have got the relief as such.
Your response in the matter is eagerly awaited and my sincere thanks well in advance.
Thanks and best Regards
Daksh
