Dear Lawyer's,
I have purchased a Plot from a "Panchayat approved layout" (which will not come under DTP). Later I executed a Sale agreement in January 2010. Sale agreement say’s that, if purchaser shall not the amount by 8th March 2010, this agreement shall be null and void.
When I contacted the Purchaser in beginning of the March month, he informed me that, there is a canal (as per old documents) in between the plot and asking me to give back the advance amount.
Actually, a dry canal was there in the layout passing middle of the plots but the LAND LORD has re-routed the canal through his own land only while preparing the layout. He got the Approval for Layout, so all are purchased the plots (all the plot holders knew that canal issue).
The plots were registered 2 to 3 times, like from Owner to X, X to Y, Y to Z.. here I am “Z”..
Once panchayat approves the layout, is there any chance that, at later date someone will come up and say "the canal has to go through the plot”??
The date (8th March) mentioned in the agreement has expired; still the agreement is valid for the purchaser legally?
I request the respected lawyers to advise me on the above issues….
Thanks in advance...
