In 1991, I bought a plot from a real estate company that owned land across two neighbouring villages in different districts of the same state. The company provided a sale deed for a share of the land in one village and handed over possession of my plot. However, I didn’t realize then that my plot might be partially located within the land of the other village. Eight years later, in 1999, the company dissolved, and one of their partners, who had a stake in the other village’s land (including roads and parks), claimed that my plot was actually his and sold it to someone else. What legal steps should I take to get my plot back?

You should file a civil suit for possession and injunction against the current owner based on your original sale deed and proof of possession. You can also claim damages from the dissolved company’s partner for fraudulently selling your land. A lawyer specializing in property disputes can guide you through the legal process.
