Family Land Partition in India: How to Get a Separate Khatauni in 45 Days (Section 116 Revenue Code & Kurra Demarcation)

By Shivam Tiwari, Founder of FormSutra

In joint Hindu family agricultural land holdings, co-sharers frequently face disputes over crop cultivation, bank Kisan Credit Card (KCC) loans, government crop compensation, and unauthorized sales of prime road-frontage acreage. Under Section 116 of the State Revenue Code (such as UP Revenue Code, 2006 / MP Land Revenue Code Section 178), any co-sharer has an absolute statutory right to claim a division of holding and obtain an independent Khatauni and separate boundary map (नक्शा तरमीम) within 45 to 90 days.

Steps
