Govt. land are for the public.NO other person can utilized this land.If any one found doing so It the duty of the Govt. to take necessary steps against them.

To add on....Now with the change in the land acquisition rules , where the owner has to be compensated with market rates and also provided an alternate site elsewhere, land grabbing has become very lucrative.Recently in my own city a large stretch of land was taken over for road widening and instead of the original owners getting the compensation it was the illegal occupiers who got it since they , with the blessings and help of the local MLA had got the RTCs changed in their names and the Corporation only honors Right of Transfer Certificate while giving compensation....The owners have of course gone in for a litigation against the corporation.
I wish there was a more transparent and accountable law where illegal occupation is concerned.

Is this law applicable to all the states? Even in our place, Government has been taking up lands for the expansion of National Highway. The owners were compensated with market rates but were not provided any alternative lands.
