Did you have any right to the additional/extra 250 sq.ft. vacant site? Any document for that additional area?
T. Kalaiselvan, Advocate (Expert) 29 December 2023
If the additional 250 sq feet property was not purchased by you by a registered deed then you cannot claim ownership of that extent of property.
Advocate Bhartesh goyal (Expert) 30 December 2023
Since you don't have ownership of additional land and only encrocher of land so can not claim any right on basis of illegal possession.
T. Kalaiselvan, Advocate (Expert) 30 December 2023
If you have documentary evidences to establish that you are in possession and enjoyment of the additional vacant land then you can annex it by filing a suit for declaration of title operating law of adverse possession, you can discuss the matter at length with a local advocate and proceed as suggested
