What happens if no objection arises for government land ownership?

I have a farmhouse of 2894 sq. ft., which was purchased by my father at that time. Next to my farmhouse, around 300 sq. ft. of land was acquired by my father in 1996 (and is owned by the government). Does the law state that if no objections arise within 30 years, the 300 sq. ft. part of the land becomes mine?

Sir, simply occupying land for 30 years does not automatically make it yours, especially if it’s government-owned. The law of adverse possession does not apply to government land. To claim ownership, you would need legal transfer or sale from the government. It is best to consult a property lawyer to explore your options and understand the legal process.
