My family, devout Hindus, has held this land since 1941, when my grandfather bought it from Badri Prasad. We're unsure how Badri Prasad acquired it, but the land records (khatiyan) from 1914-15 show it belonged to a Rai family. Their great-grandson is now claiming the land, even though our family has held the official land documents (jamabandi) for 75 years. What legal steps should we take to protect our ownership?

Consulting a lawyer experienced in land disputes is crucial to navigate legal procedures and potential challenges.
