My family has been farming our 40-acre land in Mirzapur, Uttar Pradesh for the past 15 years. This year, the forest ranger is stopping us from cultivating, claiming it’s forest land. The problem is, around 250 acres in this area are disputed between farmers and the forest department. Our village records show a joint agreement for farmers to use this land. However, the forest department uses an older map and insists our farmland is entirely forest land, making farming impossible.What legal options do we have to get a stay order or use land authority to keep farming until the dispute is settled? How long would it take to get a stay so we can plant crops this season?

My husband left home a year ago due to family disagreements. My father-in-law gave him a divorce notice, but they still work together. They even meet daily with my brother-in-law. We decided to go back home with our two-year-old, but he asked us to leave and threatened to call the police. He claims he published the divorce notice in the newspaper. What should we do in this situation?

My civil case for a permanent injunction was dismissed by the civil judge in 2012 because I didn’t pursue it. The appeal was also dismissed by the Additional District Judge and Delhi High Court for the same reason. The defendant never filed a written statement. Can I file a new case now?

Our housing society in Bangalore, registered under the Karnataka Society Registration Act of 1960, was developed through a Joint Development Agreement between the builder and the landowner. While the builder has 140 flats and the landowner has 60, leaving a total of 200 flats, some units remain unsold (around 25 by the builder and 30 by the landowner). The landowner has registered two flats in his son’s name, and his son resides in them. Now, the landowner is demanding membership in the society for all 30 unsold flats, claiming ownership and wanting 30 votes in the general body meetings.Our questions are:1. Can the landowner and/or builder be members of the association based on unsold flats?2. Should they have voting rights equivalent to the number of unsold flats, one vote each, or no votes at all?3. Can the landowner’s presence be counted as 30 members for quorum purposes if he gets 30 votes?We’ve maintained that the landowner has only two voting rights as he’s registered only two flats and resides in them. He argues that the Joint Development Agreement grants him ownership of all unsold flats. This raises the issue of the builder’s membership and voting rights as well.We want to ensure fairness and avoid denying anyone their legal rights.A) What approach should we take?B) What property documents prove their right to membership? Currently, we require the first page of the registered sale deed from other residents to verify ownership.

My father passed away in 2004, leaving behind 25 acres of ancestral farmland that was shared among his five brothers. Recently, one of my uncles divided the land without informing me or seeking my consent. My brother received a share, but I was left out. As a married woman, can I still claim my rightful share of the property? I would be grateful for any advice you can offer.

My husband and his parents were tragically killed in an accident. The property is registered only in his mother’s name, not our joint names. Since we don’t have children, and his mother passed away without a will, some relatives are claiming I won’t inherit the property. I’m a Hindu and worried about my inheritance. What are my legal rights?

My in-laws owned a shop. My father-in-law registered a property in my mother-in-law’s name in 1988. They had 5 children at the time, but no consent was obtained from any of them. Both my in-laws have passed away. Last year, in 2015, my mother-in-law transferred the shop to my brother-in-law and his son, half each, without any consent from the other children. Can we challenge this property transfer in court?

My builder in Panvel has completed 80% of my flat’s construction. I’ve paid 80% of the price (around 10 lakhs) and the sale agreement is registered. However, this builder has another project where people have complained to the Economic Offences Wing (EOW) in Maharashtra. The EOW arrested the builder and his directors, who are now in judicial custody. The EOW has also sealed the builder’s office. Will the EOW seal our building? All the flats in our building are sold and registered. What can I do?

My family has been renting out a commercial property in South Mumbai for the past 8 years under the ‘pagdi’ system. In 2012, a builder approached us for redevelopment. He promised to pay monthly rent for temporary accommodation until our new commercial space was ready, and we even signed a registered agreement. Initially, he issued a year’s worth of rent cheques, but after that, he stopped paying, claiming financial difficulties. This has been going on for three years now. I’m worried about losing our ancestral property. Is there any way to regain possession of our rightful commercial space and ensure a fair outcome?
