A person’s right of way over another person’s property is called

A right to pass over the land of another for the beneficial enjoyment of one’s own land is an easement, defined in section 4 of the Indian Easements Act, 1882; a right of way is its commonest example. A prescriptive right is not the name of the right but one way of acquiring an easement, by peaceable enjoyment as of right for twenty years under section 15. Possession is a right over one’s own land rather than over a neighbour’s, and no fundamental right gives a person a path across private property.
