Dear all,
My father owns a house 8 marla area. the colony was cut by an individual. Earlier this was an unauthorised colony.
As per initial map there was a 8" wide street between our house and neighbours house. But later when the house was constructed the area of street was divided by two of us. Now in our map the area is 8 marla only. But in municipal committee's map its 10 marla and committee is charging house rent on 10 marla.
One of our neighbours has filed a case for illegal possession of street.
Now I wish to know if there is some way to get that street area in our name.

You cannot get the property in your name when it is actually not yours. You may consult a local lawyer who will advise you based on the local circumstances and local law.
