How can I reclaim my land from illegal occupation?
I have an ancestral land illegally occupied by a person who has put a boundary wall and have banana plantation with bore well. All the documents are in my name, I also pay taxes under my name. The person threatens of killing himself if we tried legal action.
To address the illegal occupation of your ancestral land, start by documenting all ownership records, tax receipts, and photos of the encroachment. Report the occupier’s threat of self-harm to the local police to ensure your safety and create a record of the situation. Consult a lawyer to send a legal notice demanding the removal of the encroachment. If the occupier does not comply, consider filing a civil suit for eviction and recovery of possession.
You can file a civil suit under Section 6 of the Specific Relief Act, 1963, to reclaim possession within six months.
Sir, firstly you should try to resolve the matter in an amicable way and if still the person did not respond then you may consider sending a legal notice with the help of an expert lawyer who will assist you with the best course of action.
