    Dear client, There seems to be a discrepancy between the land records and your family's knowledge of the property holding. Here are some steps you can take to remedy the situation and claim your rightful share of the property: Gather Documents: Collect all documents related to the land, including: Passbook showing 15 acres of land ownership by your grandfather. Any land purchase agreements, mutation records (record of changes in ownership), or partition deeds (dividing property among inheritors) related to the land. Any revenue receipts or tax documents mentioning the 15 acres. Death certificates of your grandfather and grandmother. Consult a Lawyer Specializing in Property Law: A lawyer can review your documents, understand the discrepancy, and advise on the best course of action. This might involve: a. Negotiation: If the uncle is willing to acknowledge the rightful ownership, a lawyer can help draft an agreement dividing the land as per your grandfather's wishes (assuming there's a will) or following inheritance laws. b. Land Records Correction: If the MRO office records are incorrect, the lawyer can guide you through the process of filing an application to rectify them. This might involve presenting your documents as proof of ownership. c. Partition Suit: In case of disagreement with your uncle, a lawsuit for partition might be necessary. The court will consider the documents and determine the rightful ownership of the land.
