Inform the local Police in writing.

- It is not clear whether the property is ancestral or self acquired.
- If the property is ancestral that is coming from grandfather or other ancestors, they have share in the property and can join in farming.
- If the property is self acquired, submit an application to Dist. Collector stating the facts and your apprehensions about breach of peace by uncle and his family. Collector will bind them not to cause any breach of peace under Section 107 with undertaking from them. You can route your application through your hod as you are a defense employee.

Since you are working in a defence establishment outside your town, you can request your commanding officer to forward your request for suitable action against them and to protect your father from them to the District superintendent of police under your Commanding officer's letter head, which will also be very effective to handle this situation
Dear sir/Ma'am
As a priority, you may file a police complaint in writing asap about the issue at the local jurisdiction station officer and register your compliant. You can ask your parents to visit the station or you can write a complaint and do it online via email with supporting documents of ownership of the property.
Based on the police approach and way ahead, you may decide to take up litigation. You can also get issued a legal notice and send them legal warning before filing any case as court cases are tedious and may take away many years. Sometimes a strong legal notice with warnings and consequences work as immediate solution.
I could have discussed in detail, had I know more details. I would be at your service if you need any assistance.
Warm regards and wishing you a Good luck.
