Since your vendor and his vendor or predecessors acquired the property by registered title documents, also that you purchased the property by registered sale deed and got the revenue records properly mutated to your name long ago and have been in continuous possession and enjoyment of the property, your doubts and worries based on some old document appears to be unnecessary.
As you have not faced any problem in this regard till date, you may not worry about it now and can handle the issue when one arises at a later stage.
The reply by the concerned authorities to your query seeking information or the particular document is a confirmation that the matter has either been solved at that time itself or perhaps not pursued by the authorities subsequently.
It appears that the taluk authorities have not pursued the matter subsequently, the problem would have been solved legally at that time itself.
You may remain silent without talking any further action in this regard until you get any notice from the authorities concerned.
If you have taken the same from him after rejection automatically your title affects. You can at the most file for declaration of your title but till you don't face any issue it's better not to invoke any litigation
Dear Client,

Despite not owning the land, occupancy tenants have the right to be compensated in a situation where the land is acquired for some purpose by the state.
