Answer #1

In my opinion you can file an application for certified copy of the said property to the sub-registrar office where the property registration was done . and without detail discussion proper consult is not possible

Answer #2

First, you can obtain a certified copy of the said sale deed. It would be difficult, but not impossible. Since the real owner is not present, you will be treated as the custodian of the said property in her absence.
