aadivasi land (jharkhand)

My grandfather bought a land
from aadivasi people 25-30 years ago. on paper, it is written that the aadivasi family need money to marriage his daughter that's why aadivasi family sold his land to my grandfather.
I want to know whether this land can be registered.


Quick Summary
This discussion concerns the purchase of Aadivasi land in Jharkhand over 25 years ago. The land was bought from an Aadivasi family on a white paper agreement, with the stated reason being the family's need for funds for a daughter's marriage. The core question is whether this unregistered land can be legally registered. The advice given is that Adivasi land requires District Collector permission for sale, and a white paper agreement is insufficient for registration.

No. For Adivasi land, permission is necessary from the District Collector. But it is on white paper.  So it cannot be registered.

Who is in possession/occupation of the land?
