1. No land belonging to an individual can be acquired by the government without giving him due compensation.

2. The acquisition of private land is done through a government notification and then awarding him compensation for the same.

3. So check records whether there was due compliance of the procedure was done as prescribed by the Land Acquisition Act.

4. of not then file a writ petition in high court to get due compensation or to get back your land.

If you satisfy the conditions of section 24(2) of the new land acquisition act, you may approach the High Court and can challenge these acquisition proceedings.

See a lawyer practising on the civil side in the High Court and find out if you may move to the high court and seek benefit of sec. 24(2) of the land acquisition act, 2013.

Dear Client,

Land acquired by Government or its instrumentalities for a specific public purpose cannot be changed and transferred to private individuals or corporate bodies. Challenge the some before High Court. And if property is acquired without due procedure under land acquisition act, than file civil suit and get stay.

If the government as acquired this land by a notification but has not paid the compensation for this acquisition, then you may file a writ petition seeking compensation or repossession of your property.

You may approach high court after exhausting the remedies before the district collectorate and the local land acquisition court.
