Haryana Ordinance Simplifies Rural Land Ownership
The Haryana government has created a new rule called the Haryana Abadi Deh Ordinance, 2025.
This rule helps people who live in rural areas of Haryana to have clear ownership of their land.
Before this rule, many people did not have proper documents to show they owned their land, which caused problems when they wanted to sell or pass down their land.
The new rule uses technology like drones to map the land and create official records.
It also sets up a committee in each village to help decide who owns what land and to solve any disagreements.
The rule also says that people who mess with the land marks can be fined.
The government hopes this will make life easier for people in rural areas and help the economy grow.
Haryana government promulgated the Haryana Abadi Deh Ordinance, 2025 to simplify land ownership in rural areas.
The Ordinance grants statutory recognition to land ownership rights in abadi deh areas, including residential plots and small commercial establishments.
It creates a transparent process for recording and transferring land ownership rights and resolves disputes.
The Ordinance builds on the SVAMITVA scheme, using drone technology and satellite mapping to demarcate land boundaries.
A village committee headed by the Sarpanch will be constituted to identify and verify ownership rights and resolve disputes.
