I am a retired defense personnel, and I constructed my house on joint family ancestral land around twenty-five years ago. During my service, my cousin brother applied for a partition, and I did not object. However, due to a mistake by the revenue department or my cousin's mischief, around four marlas of my total 12-marla house were partitioned in my cousin’s name. I found out about this three years ago. Now, my cousin is harassing me and demanding an unreasonably high amount. He is not agreeing to a reasonable settlement. What should I do?
