Quick Summary

A family inherited land purchased in 1967. The property, an empty plot, was paid taxes on until 2015 and later acquired by a government college in 2018-19. The family is seeking advice on how to claim compensation from the college. They are informed that compensation is typically based on government rates, specifically the average market value over the last three years. It's also noted that the college cannot simply acquire land; a formal process involving notices and an award by a Collector or Land Acquisition Officer must be followed. If this process wasn't adhered to, it could be considered an encroachment.

You will get compensation as per Government rates i.e. average Market Value for the last three years. But why did not take action against the developer to date?

The College, even if a Government College, cannot acquire the land by itself. There is a due process to be followed in serving the notices on the interested persons and passing of award by the Collector or the Land Acquisition Officer. If not, this is a pure case of encroachment. You need to take action accordingly.
