Legal heirs claiming plot after 21 years Legal heirs claiming plot after 21 years

3 months ago

My late grand father purchased a revenue plot from a registered gpa holder in jan 2003 through a registered sale deed, constructed a shed within one week. We are using the shed for storage purpose from 2003 to present (2024) .No water and electricity connection. The said property was transferred to my father's name by executing release deed in 2011. We are paying tax for the plot for 21 years and using possession peacefully. Now we demolished the shed and started construction of new house.
But Now in 2024 the legal heirs (staying opposite) are claiming that the registered gpa done by legal heirs and their late father is fraud. And the signatures in registered gpa is forged. They are showing RTC and claiming the land belongs to us and stopping construction activities forcefully.
What can be done now and what if the registered gpa is fraud?

A.Dear Client,
In the current situation, it is crucial to address the claim of fraud regarding the registered General Power of Attorney (GPA). To safeguard your interests, you should engage legal counsel promptly. Your legal representative can guide you through the necessary steps, including verifying the authenticity of the GPA and examining the signatures.
You may consider conducting a thorough investigation to establish the legitimacy of the registered GPA, possibly by obtaining expert opinions on handwriting or forensic analysis if needed. Simultaneously, gather evidence to support your peaceful possession, such as tax payment records, utility bills, and any other documents demonstrating continuous use since the property's purchase.
Your legal advisor can assist in responding to the legal heirs' claims, and if required, initiate legal proceedings to protect your ownership rights. It is essential to handle this matter through the appropriate legal channels to resolve the dispute effectively.
Ensure that you keep all relevant documents in order, and consult with your legal counsel to determine the best course of action based on the specifics of your case and applicable property laws in your jurisdiction.
Thankyou

A.Dear sir
They should have challenged sale deed and release deed within 3 years of respective executions. You may approach a senior advocate and suit will be dismissed if any filed by them or you may file suit for permanent injunction and restrain them.
