I don't think that there is anything illegal about mortgaging the Agricultural land.  I also do not find any illegality in the DRT Officer ordering sale of the agricultural land in case of default.

Action by DRT will  be there only when you do not repay the Bank Loan. You must have good plans to repay the  bank loans. in case of your genuine difficulty you can request the bank to give some more time.

Equitable mortgage of agriculture land is legaly valid and DRT can pass order for sale the land.
