If that is a public way why did he have to pay for it? I mean you could simply have left it vacant. Anyways if the terms of the deed were such and those terms are not being honoured then you can file for specific performance of contract.

1. If clauses of the Sale Deed has been breached /infringed, THEN you can revoke /rescind the Sale Deed, by giving proper legal notice & refund of money and by filing a Civil Suit in the local civil court.

2. In amicable circumstances, the Sale Deed can be cancelled by joint signatures of both the parties involved.

Conditional sale deed not valid. Once property sold, seller looses all rights in property.

You sold the land now why worrying, let those affected file the case. Can try by filling suit of cancellation of sale deed but rare possibility of success.

Those who lives behind if using the path from long time than can file suit of easement.

it cannot be cancelled. 

Instead we have to get him to honour the contract.

You have to prepare cancellation deed and get registered in sub registrar office where you have registered sale deed. So try to convince other party to come in for cancellation deed.

If the condition mentioned in the sale deed has been violated by the buyer then the seller can invoke the clause for cancellation due to this breach of contract condition and can execute a registered cancellation deed unilaterally.

If the registrar refuses to register the cancellation deed, then the seller can approach court with suit for cancellation of the sale deed for the reasons he relies upon.
