This is not easy issue but very complex legal issues. Without reading the complete papers and earlier case papers and orders , it is very difficult to give proper legal advise. However, as a general advise , you can file Writ Petition in High Court to stop the illegal acts of the opposite person.

Dear Sir, In this case there is two options of remedy which is following :- 1) You may file complaint in the Office of the District Collector & attach copy of 7/12 extract along with complaint . Copy of same complaint provide to the office of Talathi, Circle officer, Revenue Commissioner, Secretary Land Revenue Department of State. Take acknowledge of all copies. After that Collector will take legal action against encroacher. 2) Another remedy is you may file Public interest litigation in High Court against of government officers which is mentioned above. After the judgement High Court will give Order to all authority. Thanks,
