My uncle gifted land to his sister i.e., my mother in 1989 (written on Rs.50/- stamp paper in 1989). Actually the land belongs to Govt & provided to my uncle under BPL land scheme (D form Patta). He died. Till now we didn't get the position of land as the neighbouring land owner (he also got the land in the same way) is objecting us to build house there. He is a local party leader & wat ever we tried is of no use. the land is still in the name of my uncle & he died. wat to do to get position?

is the gift deed regsitered? were any restrictions placed on transfer of land under BPL scheme? who are legal heirs of your uncle ?

It seems that the gift is written on stamp paper and not registered. If so, gift is not valid and the land would be inherited by the legal heirs of the deceased.

apparently gift deed is not registered.
see rules of patta.
