► I live in Gujarat due to my job. My father bought a land via sale deed dated 1.10.1989 from a person. The land in an agricultural land in Zamania (State - U.P.). We were not visiting our village for last 8 years. Therefore, when we visited our village in 2022, we came to know that a person has trespassed into the 'suit land' and claiming that he is the owner because he paid our 'caretaker' 5 lacs Rupees in 2019. We have filed a civil suit (Title Suit) in the local sub-judge Court in our Tehsil. While filing the suit, we had given the original title deed to our lawyer. Now the lawyer fighting our case says that original title deed and case papers have been lost. We have attached copies of the original title sale deed of the land while filing the civil suit. Our lawyer now says that we won't be able to prove our title in abscene of original sale deed. What are we supposed to do now?
Please advice and provide insight to the below stated queries:-
1. Can we submit the certified copies of the Original Sale Deed from Registry Office?
2. Will court consider the Certified Copy of the Sale Deed instead of original title deed? 3. What are our chances of getting a favourable order in this case?
