Protection of Public Land
Each Village Office maintains a register which lists all the public lands within the boundaries of the village. The Village Officer is responsible for identifying and reporting any encroachments in the public lands, to the Tahsildar. The Village Officer should check the boundary stones of the Government lands once in 3 months for identifying any encroachments. The Tahsildar is responsible for performing a super-check of 5% of the cases thus reported. The details of the inspection have to be recorded in the register maintained in the Village Office for this purpose and is verified during Jamabandhi.
