Hello, In your case, a huge time has already passed so it is difficult for correcting documents. You will have to contact the seller for the registration of the rectification deed. Without the presence of the seller before the sub-registrar correction in the document is not possible.

As per your query let me inform you that generally in case a person needs to make alterations in the registeration deed then he/she needs to appear before the sub-registrar's office where it was previously registered and submit an application to the official, seeking correction in the document, along with all the supporting documents.

However, if major changes are required in the original document, then the person has to take along two witnesses, for the registration of the rectification deed. After which all the necessary changes will be made.

Similar patter will be followed up in your scenario as well with few minor additions. Since you've mentioned in your query that your great-grand father purchased the site from someone back in 1959 you (buyer) as well as the other party's legal heirs (seller) both should agree on the error, and both have to appear before the sub-registrar's office where it was first registered.
As this is one of a major change (especially due to time) both the parties (i.e. buyer & seller) must have two witnesses each, for the purpose of registration of the rectification deed, and then changes will be made accordingly.

Moreover, there is no need for you to worry about the time duration as the Indian Registeration Act, 1908 states that 'there is no time limit on getting a mistake in a property document corrected', thus rectification can be done even though it has been a long time now.
