Questions Answered by Advocate Shriya Maini



Q: Taking care of property from last 40 years how can we claim it ?

We're taking care of a land from past 40 years. Now the landowner is threatening us to take back the land, He gave us without enforcement. We've no legal papers of it. The land is still barren, We took care and didn't used it in any incorrect way. Please help us to keep the land. My uncle was also the partners with the landowner. what is supreme court judgement on possession of property ?

Advocate Shriya Maini answered
I would require more information and details to answer your query. As for your possession of the land is concerned, I would require some sort of proof to show that you are managing the land for 40 years - such as any water/electricity bill/rent of property of that address in your name or any sort of documentary proof. From what you state, adverse possession is a plea that could be taken but that not so easy to prove in Court. Hence, I would have to reconfirm the applicability of adverse possession to your situation once I peruse the papers and ask you questions to develop more information on the same.

Please lodge a police complaint immediately (and give a copy to the concerned school authorities) alleging Section 323 (voluntarily causing hurt) of the Indian Penal Code against the teacher specifically and concerned section of the State law against cruelty to children against the school.
