The State Government has fixed a new policy for the renewal of permanent Nazul pattas. Through the policy, the cases of violation of the conditions of the permanent pattas / cases of negligence will be resolved and pattas will also be renewed. The authorized officer will determine the annual land rent before the renewal. This will be 6 times the final fixed land rent.
Revenue Minister Umashankar Gupta has informed that for the compound of permanent patta renewal and violation of conditions, the District Collector or the Additional Collector authorized by him shall be the authorized officer. Any renewal can be applied for a period of one year before the end of the permanent pattas. A compound fee will be imposed on applications received late after the expiry of the term.
This order will be effective in relation to the permanent pattas issued before March 31, 2017. In cases where permanent pattas have expired before March 31, 2017 and a situation of breach of the conditions of the pattas is being created, applications can be made for one year from the date of issue of this circular dated May 4, 2018. The applications received will be resolved in a time-bound manner.
The authorized officer will take report on fixed points through the Nazul officer/tehsildar Nazul before patta renewal. The authorized officer will resolve the case after giving chance for hearing to the patta holder on finding him guilty of violation of conditions of permanent pattas.
