No, building on government land without permission is illegal in India. You can explore government schemes like the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana (PMAY) which provides housing assistance for low-income families.

Previous Article I’m Rajesh Srivastava, and my wife and I have been married for over 8 years. We haven’t been able to have a child due to complications with my wife’s health, including filariasis, tuberculosis, and blocked fallopian tubes. We’ve been seeking medical treatment for the past 5 years, including surgery, but haven’t been successful. Sadly, my wife’s behavior has also been challenging, and she’s been living with her family for the past 18 months. Given this situation, I have a few legal questions: 1. I’m a contractual employee in the health department. Can my wife legally demand expenses for staying at her parents’ house? 2. Can my wife legally accuse me of dowry harassment? 3. Considering our inability to have children and her health issues, can I legally seek a divorce?
Next Article I was born in Andhra Pradesh but my hometown is in Madhya Pradesh. During my college years in Pune, I needed a domicile certificate but didn’t have one. To get it, I had to obtain a new birth certificate from my hometown stating I was born in MP. It’s been ten years now, and I’m worried I might have accidentally used this incorrect birthplace in other documents, like my voter ID. Could this lead to legal trouble? Is there a way to correct this mistake, including my birth place on documents where I might have mistakenly mentioned MP? Does the government have any scheme similar to the income declaration scheme to address these issues? I’d appreciate guidance in complete confidentiality.
