Agriculture rtc validity

Hi

 My father has an agricultural land. Other than the RTC which is in his name, he does not have mutation document. I have few queries

1) Is RTC document enough to prove the owenership of the land?

2) Just with the RTC can one get an injuction on the land  if relative  has been taking care of the land as a caretaker and is not stopping the agriculture activity inspite of objection to stop.

What are the legal options to ensure the agriculture activities are stopped by the relative.

Thank you

Rajendra



Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the validity of an RTC (Record of Rights, Tenancy, and Crops) document for proving agricultural land ownership. While an RTC is a primary revenue document indicating who holds and cultivates the land, it's advised to have supporting documents like mutation records, tax receipts, and survey records. For legal recourse, such as obtaining an injunction against a relative interfering with land activities, proving ownership, possession, and enjoyment through all relevant documents is crucial. Legal steps may include sending a notice, filing a police complaint, and seeking a restraining order from a civil court.

RTC is primary revenue document it shows who is holding and cultivating the land. 

Mutation is a document which record all changes of ownership transfer.

Better you should have all the revenue documents including tax paid receipts, survey records and other antecendent documents of title under which your father acquired the ownership.

First instance send a legal notice then file a police complaint and approch the civil court and get the restraining order from the court and prove the title with possession.

What about the title deed?, is he having one?

You have to prove your ownership, possession and enjoyment to obtain an order of injunction without which even the suit itself may not be maintainable.

Thak you Sir for your claification. The agricultural land was partitioned my by Grandfather to my father. Its an ancestral property which was partiotioned and handed over to my father by my Grand father. The only document we have now is RTC which has my fathers name.

You have stated that it was ancestral property and partitioned and given to your grandfather, whether there's any document to prove the partition?

Your grandfather inturn transferred to your father, and what was the mode of transfer?

Ascertain the facts and proceed as suggested
