My grandfather own a farm land with his brother's son, we are separated from my father's cousin but the land is not separated legally yet,
Our farms fertility is variable so we decided that who own the better fertile land will get the less land than the other so around 15 year my uncle harvested the bigger plot & we got the smaller.
Then 3 years back, we switched it mutually and the most important thing the path for the land is from North side only which is now in his possession,
Now he sold a part of that land to the third party without our consent,
Is there any way to stop him?

A.You should file a suit for preemption as follows and get it cancelled. Please give me Rank 5 if you feel my answer helped you.
===================================================
Right To Joint Possession And Right of Pre-emption

There are two views in this matter. The purchaser has no right to joint possession of the property compelling partition. He can sue all other coparceners for that purpose. [32]
If the vendee has obtained possession, the other coparceners can get him ejected by a suit. All that the purchaser is entitled to in such a suit is a declaration that he is entitled to the share of the coparcener against whom the decree has been passed.
The Bombay High Court has a different approach. It gives some discretion to the court in the matter of ejectment of a stranger purchaser. In Bhau Laxman v. Budha Manku [33] the court laid down three rules:
First, if a purchaser stranger of the undivided interest of a coparcener in a joint family property is out of possession, he should not be given joint possession with the other coparceners but should be left to his remedy of a suit for partition.
Secondly, on the other hand if the purchaser has obtained possession of the property, a coparcener who has been excluded may obtain joint possession with the purchaser.
Thirdly, the purchaser in possession need not be ejected in a suit for recovery of possession brought by an excluded coparcener. The matter should be decided on merits because he is not a trespasser. In a suitable case he may be declared to be entitled to hold (pending partition) as a tenant-in-common with other coparceners.
The issue came to be discussed by Supreme Court in M.V.S. Manikayala Rao v. M. Narasimhaswami [34] . The court held that it is well settled that a purchaser in such a case cannot claim to be put in joint possession with the other coparceners. He has only the right to ask for general partition of the joint property.

A.Without legally partition he cannot sell that land
if he want to sell it than without your no objection he cannot sell it.
So now you can file objection in it and prove it illegal registry.
Thanks
