Section 32 of PLRA : Section 32: Making Or Special Revision Of Record-Of-Rights

Explanation using Example

Imagine a scenario where the government of Punjab intends to update the land records for a district where the current records are outdated and do not reflect the current ownership and land use accurately. The government, through the Local Government, issues a notification stating that a special revision of the record-of-rights for all estates in that district is required.

In this case, the notification would specify the particular area and the estates whose records need to be updated. This could include changes due to sales, inheritance, or land reforms. The updated record-of-rights, once completed, would replace the existing one and would be used for administrative purposes such as taxation, development planning, and resolving disputes. However, it would not alter any existing legal presumptions in favor of the government based on previous records.
