Respected Experts,
We acquired ancestral property/agricultural land in a village. Due to naxalite problem none of our family member is visiting there since past 15 years. If we visit we will be killed. Land has been occupied by the naxalites and they r doing farming. Now when naxal movement will go, Can we claim that land back. Will law of adverse posession apply here, if it will left for some more period. Plz. Advice. Thanks.

First of all establish the nexal problem end. If it is done then your and land belonging to other general people shall definitely come back either by way of special Govt. order or through law. Dont worry for that. It is the need of hour to first create such situation.

Myy friends are right. however, it is safer if you initiate some proceedings , at leaast an FIR so as to have a record of the factual situation .
