Learned State Counsel submits that petitioner wants to regain possession of the land, which is occupied by some other person, through demarcation. He submits that if any part of petitioner’s land is encroached upon by some other individual, then the only remedy available to him is to file suit under Section 209 of Zamindari Abolition and Land Reforms Act.
