Does the Deputy Collector and the Magistrate have the authority to give the possession of a land which is demarcated? 4. What other legal actions can be suggested to obtain the possession of the land?

  • Demarcation or Survey of land would depend on laws of each state and varies from state to state. The same would be governed by the land code of each state, in Maharashtra, the same is governed by the Maharashtra Land Revenue Code. The authorities would have power only to carry out survey and/or demaraction of lands and would not have the power to hand over possession of such demarcated land, unless there is some Order of some court directing them to do the same. Posession of land can be acquired only by filing a Suit in a court of competent civil jursidiction.
