Government claiming Private land
We purchased X sqyds in 2004 thru a registered sale deed. The land is classified as FTL ( Full tank Level) as it is very close a lake, hence no permission for any construction activities, which we were aware of since the time we bought the land. We kept the land in the same manner for 12years hoping to benefit from it if government reverses the FTL in the future due to the dying condition of the lake. However yesterday in the middle of our open plot the government officials of hyderabad placed an inaugration & foundation stone mentioning " beautification project for the lake & Ganesh visarjan platform". I am worried as this is illegal and like encroachment on my land. The land still belongs to me in all the documents of the government.
1. How can the government place a foundation stone on a piece of land that does not belong to them and without our acknowledgment.
2. How can i challenge and stop them from proceeding without addressing my concerns.
3. Is getting compensation the only option for me based on market rates or government rates(significantly lower)?

Thank you Advocates for the insight. Seek your advice on with the following
1. Can i hire an Advocate to file the RTI on my behalf and also proceed with the case.(I am not based in India)
2. There is unpleasant information on the judgement timing in India, on an average what time line should i look into getting a judgment( compensation & Stay Order) on this case. Asking because some lawyers asked to sign an agreement with the timing & fees.
3. Since there is no Fencing on my plot, Can i now place some fencing ( the foundation stone will be in the middle of my plot). Further can i demolish the Foundation stone laid as its an encroachment into my land. Will that be considered as an offence.
