My Grandfather was registered as a farmer and was having agri. land. He died in 1986 and I found Xerox of 7/12 of one of his agri land nearby Rajkot where he was a partner.
How can my father (Age 70) & I register ourselves as farmer ?
I have heard that its very difficult to get the status of the land from the concerned authority as they do not help in gving info unless you give them money.
Is there any hasslefree way where I can get the status of our land and we can again register ourselves as farmer ?
I have 4 Uncles and if that share of land is still on the name of my Grandfather, then they also have the right in that. So based on that land if we go to register ourselves as farmer, do we need approval of all of them ?
Is there anyother legally valid shortcut where we can establish ourselves as farmer ?
Can we get any online information about the land and fill up our registration and get online status of our inquiry for the same ?

Its nearby Rajkot. One location - Mawadi (Not Mahudi).

You may use RTI to get the exact present status of the land in question from the Revenue Authorities concerned. Further, proceedings can be thought of only thereafter.
