Respected Sir / Madam,
My Grandfather has some land of about 3-4 acres in Andhra Pradesh (Nellore dist). My Grandparents are no more.
He has 6 children and we are 22 gandchildren now. As per some rumours, the localites say that if we do not go and do something about the land, the Govt will acquire it. So, we have just decided to go to our native place and put a fence around the land.
In addition to the above, following are issues/bottlenecks:
1. No one in the family knows where the land documents are nor if ever there was a will executed by my Grandfather. Will this be a problem approcahing the local Sub registrar office.
2. Secondly, the problem is we are not aware what the exact size of the land is and what steps we need to do to retain this ancestral property.
3. Thirdly, if this land was to be shared amongst us, how best can it be shared - will the land be divided into 6 parts or 22 parts.
4. Finally, I would appreciate any legal help on how we can best use this God's gift (land) during the current period and for future prospects.
I apprecitae a sound advise on the above.
Thanking you very much in advance.
Regards,
Joshua
