YOUR FATHER REMAINING IN POSSESION OF THE LAND FOR 25-30 YEARS AND AS PER LAW IF A PERSON REMAINS IN POSSESION OF THE LAND FOR 20 YEARS OR MORE HE BECOME OWNER BY ADVERSE POSSESION. IF YOU HAVE ANY PROOF PERTAINING TO POSSESSION FOR 25-30 YEARS THEN YOUR FATHER BECAME THE OWNER OF THAT LAND AND AFTER HIS DEATH YOU AR THE OWNER BUT ON THE BASIS OF RECORD YOU HAVE TO GET TH ASME ENTERED IN YOUR NAME.

No i differ in the opinion with Mr. N. Akshay Beri because the rule of adverse possession is applicable after 12 years n not 20 years.
Rules of adverse possession are so complex that each case differs from the other... there can not be a sure formula to get ownership through adverse possession..
