The Bihar government has started land survey in most of the villages in the state. But do you know what are the disadvantages and benefits of land survey to the common man? Today we will tell you in which states of the country the work of land survey has been completed so far.
Land Survey
Let us tell you that after the land survey, the land owners get the ownership rights. During this, the common rural people get scared, but in reality the government does not snatch the land in the land survey, but updates all the documents and names. Through this survey, all the records related to government land will be correct and the name of the living person is put in place of the deceased.
Bihar
The Bihar government has started land survey in more than 45,000 villages of the state. According to Bihar government officials, this survey will be completed by next year 2025, this will register the names of all the living owners of the land of the people of Bihar.
Jharkhand

The High Court has also recently given an order regarding this. The division bench of Jharkhand High Court’s Acting Chief Justice SN Prasad and Justice AK Rai has heard the petition filed demanding a land survey in the state. During the hearing, the court has directed the government to complete the land survey in all the districts of the state within eight months.
