Purchased assigned land in 1981 - reg

Samba Murthy Madeti (Querist) 20 December 2014 This query is : Resolved
Respected Sir,

This is Samba Murthy Madeti, from Visakhapatnam and I would like to have an advise on this.

My Grand Mother had purchased a land in 1981 and later she realised it as Assigned land. Infact she is really unaware of the fact that the land is assigned land. However, she got the land registered in 1981 and also got a passbook. Later she was not allowed to enter the land and she protested it and were in the possession of land. We did not pay any taxes as we were afraid on what can happen further.

We did not make any developments there but were regularly checking the land. Area slowly developed and my father and his brothers settled in various locations by virtue of Job. We neglected the land since 1990's.

Now we went back to see that government boards were placed in our land. We were surprised and for our surprise the land was unrecogised due to huge development in that area. However we were able to locate the land from unofficial sources and found the land to be in existance.

We file for status quo and go status quo from High Court of Andhra Pradesh. We applied for Survey and the local govt people are not helping us officially even after we paid the fee and required amounts. We went to High Court for Survey also.

However, I am writing this to understand the legality of my land. I am ready to pay all the expenses I need to pay to government to regularise it. Can any of you help me in providing case laws and references in which such lands are regularised? Apart, please do suggest me on how can this be regularised with out any hurdle.

Thanks

1. You will need to file a Revenue Suit before the District Collector. The status quo judgement of the H.C. can come to your aid when you file such revenue suit.
