Hi, my great grand father gave a part of our land to someone as Dhanam,(which is not registered) in the year 1961. In that patram, it is mentioned that the donee can use the land but cannot sell. Now, in 2024 the donee grand children sold the land to others, who are creating problems for us. The part of land donated along with other land of us is still in my great grand father's name. In this regard, I have the following questions:
1. What are the legal actions that we can take against the buyer?
2. Is it worth fighting the legal battle?
Please help with your valuable advice.

Once the land was donated to them it becomes their property.
You cannot make a claim over it for any reason that too after passage of 6 Decades.
No legal action will be maintainable
