You can not get it registered now unless his son agrees to do so.

Please stay with possession and do not file a case.
Let him file a case and you defend but not on the ground of that 5 rupees deed but on the ground of adverse possession, at least house would hopefully get saved.

You can go ahead with your renovation work of the house without his permission, since the property is in your possession, ask him to go ahead legally which you can challenge it accordingly.
