Hello Sir, We are having a property in Hapur, Uttar Pradesh and its original owner was our great grandfather. He purchased this property on Patta in 1930's and built a Kothi in 850 sq yards area. He passed away in 1968, but before that, he executed his will in the favour of his daughter, and through this will we have been inheriting it through generation. We sold some part of it through the years, and it was done properly through the registry office. Then in 2015 we sold a flat to one of our neighbour, which is built on first floor of its back portion. Everything went well, until we tried to sell the rest of the portion. he was with an intent to grab the ground land which was right under his flat. Now he has defamed this land so much through his sources that we are not in a position to sell it. Further, with the help of his neighbour, who runs a digital news paper, he is printing baseless news about our property and trying to prove that we are not the owners of this land at all. We do possess the original registered will of the land, but due to termite attack, we lost the Patta papers. So what we must do to negate the effect of this mal publicity? Though we have registered Civil and Criminal Cases in a district court against both these parties. Suit is on. Kindly help.

Sir, may I know, where we can lodge written complaint against such digital news platforms? They must be discouraged to play with someone's social respect. Our great grandfather was a great Hindu Missionary, and his name is even mentioned at Google. His name was Pandit Ramchandra Dehlvi.

Since you have already given complaint to police and also have filed a civil suit in this regard, what is the opinion or clarification that you require now.
You have already sold some portions of property onq the basis of title acquired through Will and Patta and there are relevant entries reflected in the subsequent sale deeds, this establishes your title to the property hence you have nothing more to do anything on this other than wait for the results of the existing cases and decide further course after that.
