illegal encroachment of a plot

Yogesha (Querist) 27 April 2011 This query is : Resolved
I am the owner of a plot 41x30ft & i have all documents like sale deed etc mentioning the dimensions of it. My neighbour encroached my plot nearly 2feet & built his house & compound his wall. Now my site measures 39x30ft. We came to know recently as we were out of station since some years. I want to construct a house on it now, how do i approach this issue? Will it take long time to battle it? Can i start the construction on 39x30 & battle in court along with construction? please suggest, appreciate your help as this is bit urgent.

Definitely sorting the dispute out from court would take a lot of time and hence it is advisable if you go for mutual settlement.

He is not ready to show his papers & we measured his construction area which is higher than what we are aware of his site area. Any suggestions how do we get him come to table...?

Thanks for your suggestion to settle through mutual settlement.
