Since this is a boundary issue, you should clearly define your land boundaries. You should gather all the documents that prove your ownership and clarify the boundaries of your property, such as the Title deed, revenue record (ROR, Adangal, Passbook), survey details, and previous survey documents. Follow up with the MRO in writing and insist on an official inquiry into the boundary dispute. Request the MRO to conduct a proper survey in the presence of local authorities to avoid any further confusion. If the local surveyor is not following the correct procedure, you may also request the MRO to appoint a neutral surveyor. File a complaint at the nearest police station explaining the boundary dispute and mentioning the threats or harassment by the other party. File a Civil Suit for partition and boundary clarification in the local court. The suit would request the court to:
Issue a decree regarding the accurate boundaries of your land.
Order a new survey to accurately mark the boundaries.
Prevent trespassing or encroachments on your land.
The court will appoint a court commissioner or surveyor to inspect the land and issue a report. The court’s order will be legally binding. Look for an advocate who has experience in land boundary disputes, property law, and legal proceedings related to revenue records. You can visit the local bar association to get references for reliable advocates. Mark the boundaries clearly. Photograph the current situation. Keep a record of all communications with the MRO, survey authorities, and police.

File a suit for cancellation of the sale deed pleading fraud and forceful land deal. Also make a police complaint against government employees who forced you and also a separate complaint seeking departmental action against them.
