Land is a local subject. Better consult a Lawyer in that State.

However, it appears that only afarmer can purchase agricultural land in that State unless with the due permission of the competent Revenue Authority.

Mr. Venu has already advised.
Get in touch with competent revenue official.

Local law applicable, consult with local lawyer.

Until due permission of competent revenue official is possible/obtained, don't enter into even agreement to sell.

Check and confirm before you act.
