1. The best procedure in a case like yours is to hire a lawyer, then follow their advice.
2. Generally when a sale deed is executed and registered by a land owner, he ceases to have any right over the sold land. If he has executed one more sale deed by concealing the facts, he is liable for criminal action. The officials in “Mamlatdar Office” ( I donot understand Mamlatdar but may be equivalent to Tahsildar in our region in charge of land & land revenue ) should deal with the matter by evaluating which sale deed is earlier and 7/12 entry shall be made in favour of first document holder by earlier date. If your sale deed is earlier, you are safe. If your sale deed is later, you may have to file the criminal complaint only against the party who sold you.
3. When you purchased the land the Title Co. should have run a title check to make sure there were no liens against the property and issue you a Title Insurance Policy. If you have that then you need to go back to the Title Co. j
