आधिकारिक खोज पद्धति • DILRMP Search Matrix Verified on Meghalaya Revenue & Autonomous District Council Records

कम्प्यूटरीकृत Meghalaya रिकॉर्ड खोजने के मुख्य तरीके (Four Official Search Modes)

Revenue & Disaster Management Department, Meghalaya & Autonomous District Councils (KHADC, JHADC, GHADC) के आधिकारिक पोर्टल पर डिजिटल Land Holding Certificate / Patta और कैडस्ट्रल Survey Plot Map देखने के 4 मुख्य विकल्प उपलब्ध हैं। अपनी सुविधा के अनुसार किसी भी एक विकल्प का चयन करें:

1

Plot / Dag Number द्वारा खोजें

सर्वोत्तम विकल्प: यदि आपके पास पंजीकृत बैनामा (Sale Deed) या ऋण पुस्तिका है, तो उसमें दर्ज Plot / Dag Number (उदा. 104, 104/1, 256/2) दर्ज करें।

  • प्लॉट की सटीक चौहद्दी और क्षेत्रफल तुरंत दिखाता है।
  • विवादित या बंधक स्थिति की जांच के लिए सबसे सटीक तरीका।
2

Patta / Holding Number संख्या द्वारा खोजें

संयुक्त जोत जांच: Patta / Holding Number डालने पर उस खाते में दर्ज सभी सह-खातेदारों के नाम और कुल भूमि रकबा एक ही पेज पर खुल जाता है।

  • परिवार के सभी हिस्सेदारों के कुल खसरे एक साथ देखें।
  • खाते पर कोई बैंक ऋण या कोर्ट स्टे है तो टिप्पणी कॉलम में प्रदर्शित होता है।
3

खातेदार / रैयत के नाम द्वारा खोजें

यदि गाटा/खाता संख्या नहीं मालूम: किसान या भू-स्वामी के नाम के पहले 2-3 अक्षर पोर्टल के ऑन-स्क्रीन कीबोर्ड से टाइप करें।

  • नाम के साथ पिता या पति का नाम मिलाकर सही खाते का चयन करें।
  • स्पेलिंग अंतर होने पर हमेशा Plot / Dag Number से खोज का उपयोग करें।
4

Mutation / Transfer Approval / केस संख्या द्वारा

हालिया रजिस्ट्री या विरासत: बैनामा कराने के बाद नाम दर्ज हुआ या नहीं, यह जानने के लिए दाखिल-खारिज आवेदन संख्या या आदेश दिनांक से खोजें।

  • तहसीलदार/नायब तहसीलदार न्यायालय का नामांतरण आदेश डाउनलोड करें।
  • दाखिल-खारिज आदेश पारित होते ही कम्प्यूटरीकृत रिकॉर्ड में नाम अपडेट हो जाता है।
विशिष्ट पहचान कोड (Unique Land ID): Meghalaya में डिजिटल भूलेख को 14 या 16 अंकों के विशिष्ट भू-कोड (Bhu-Aadhaar / ULPIN) से लिंक किया गया है। यह कोड दर्ज करने पर बिना किसी नाम भ्रम के सीधे आपकी जमीन का शुद्ध रिकॉर्ड खुलता है।

जमीन का रिकॉर्ड खोजने से पहले आवश्यक जानकारी (Details Required Before Searching Land Records)

Keep these details ready before searching on Meghalaya Revenue & Autonomous District Council Records:

  • Location path: Select your District → Autonomous Council / Revenue Circle → Mouza / Elaka / Nokma Area → Village / Locality from the dropdown menus.
  • Plot / Dag Number: Locates your parcel on the village map and shows boundary dimensions.
  • Patta / Holding Number: Displays all plots registered under a single family or owner.
  • Landowner name: Use this search option if you do not know the plot or account number.

What to do if your Meghalaya land record is not found online

While the majority of revenue villages in Meghalaya are digitized under the Digital India Land Records Modernization Programme (DILRMP), certain records may not appear in the online search. This typically happens in rural consolidation (chakkbandi) areas, newly bifurcated tehsils, parcels under ongoing consolidation court proceedings, or forest fringe zones.

1. Visit Local Tehsil / Anchal Office

Visit your jurisdictional Tehsil, Taluk, or Anchal revenue counter with your village name, Khasra or Khatauni reference, and owner name.

2. Request Certified Extract from ADC / DC Revenue Branch

Submit an application for a certified copy of the land holding record from the Autonomous District Council or DC Revenue Branch. Fees are payable as per the council fee schedule with an official receipt.

3. Boundary Survey & Demarcation

If your village map sheet does not show parcel lines, submit a demarcation request (*Paimaish* / *Mojani*) through the Revenue Inspector or government surveyor (*Amin* / *Patwari*).

4. CSC / Jan Seva Kendra Assistance

Village-level Common Service Centers (CSC) can verify if your record was recently locked during annual Jamabandi revision or pending mutation entry.

भू-नक्शे पर खेत की सीमाएं, रास्ता और सरकारी संकेत कैसे समझें? (Understanding Plot Boundaries & Map Symbols)

Official village cadastral sheets (Survey Plot Map) use standardized cartographic symbols. Use this decoder to identify access roads, canals, and plot boundaries:

Solid Black / Dark Boundary Defines the surveyed perimeter of an individual revenue plot (Plot / Dag Number).
Dotted / Parallel Dashed Lines Chak Marg or village cart track (Rasta). Statutory right-of-way that cannot be blocked or encroached.
Blue Double Line or Ribbon Nahar, canal, irrigation drain, or natural watercourse. Construction is restricted along buffer margins.
Green Shaded / Cross-Hatched Gram Sabha, Abadi (settlement), pasture (Charagah), or forest reserve. Non-transferable community land.
Sub-Division Suffix (/1, /2, Min) Bataank or partitioned sub-plot carved out of a larger joint ancestral survey number.
Tri-Junction / Seemana Stone Three-village boundary intersection (Sehada). Permanent benchmark used by surveyors for ground triangulation.
Buyer Advisory: Demarcated (Bata) Plots vs. Minjumla (Undivided) Khasra

When reviewing plot numbers on the Survey Plot Map, note the distinction between sub-divided and undivided parcels:
• Bata Khasra (e.g. 142/1, 142/2): Indicates an officially surveyed sub-division with defined boundary lines plotted on the cadastral map.
• Minjumla Khasra (e.g. 142 Min): Indicates an undivided co-share where the owner's legal fraction is recorded in the ledger, but specific boundary lines have not yet been demarcated on the physical map sheet.
If you are purchasing a Minjumla parcel, insist on an official boundary demarcation (Haddbandi / Seemankan under Meghalaya Land Revenue & Tenancy Regulations (administered by Revenue & Disaster Management Department, Meghalaya & Autonomous District Councils (KHADC, JHADC, GHADC))) before signing the final sale deed to ensure undisputed physical possession.

ऑनलाइन खसरा-खतौनी (जमीन का रिकॉर्ड) निकालने की पूरी प्रक्रिया (How to Check Land Ownership Record Online)

The Land Holding Certificate / Patta confirms ownership, share extent, and bank mortgage remarks. Follow these steps:

  1. Open Meghalaya Government Portal (meghalaya.gov.in) in your web browser.
  2. Select the option to view Land Holding Certificate / Patta on the home screen.
  3. Choose your District → Autonomous Council / Revenue Circle → Mouza / Elaka / Nokma Area → Village / Locality and the current revenue year.
  4. Select your search method (Plot / Dag Number, Patta / Holding Number, or Owner Name), enter the value, and submit the captcha code.
  5. Check each co-owner's share, total land area, and the remarks column, then print or save the PDF copy.
Don't Know Your Plot / Dag Number? How to Search by Owner Name:

If you do not have your Plot / Dag Number or Patta / Holding Number, follow these simple steps:
1. Select your District → Autonomous Council / Revenue Circle → Mouza / Elaka / Nokma Area → Village / Locality as usual.
2. Click the search tab labeled खातेदार के नाम द्वारा खोजें (Search by Landholder Name).
3. Type the first 1 to 2 letters of the recorded owner name using the on-screen phonetic keyboard.
4. Select the matching name from the citizen list to reveal all registered Plot / Dag Number numbers, total landholding area, and co-sharer details.

खतौनी / जमाबंदी में इन जरूरी जानकारियों की जांच अवश्य करें (Key Details to Verify on Your Land Record)

Official revenue extracts on Meghalaya Revenue & Autonomous District Council Records use five standard columns. Use this table to verify each section before buying land or applying for a loan:

Document Column Meaning in Meghalaya Buyer Verification Action
1. Patta / Holding Number Unique ledger number assigned to a landowner or joint family holding in the village. Match the seller's name and parent or spouse name with their Aadhaar card and sale deed.
2. Plot / Dag Number Unique parcel number on the village cadastral map (Survey Plot Map). Confirm that the plot number on the Land Holding Certificate / Patta matches the parcel on the Survey Plot Map.
3. Land Area and Share Total parcel area and each co-owner's fractional share. Verify that the sale area stays within the seller's recorded share using the Area Unit Calculator.
4. Land Classification Category of land: Ri-Kynti (Private), Ri-Raid (Community), A'king Land, and Government Revenue/Municipal Lease Land.. Confirm that the parcel belongs to a private transferable land category.
5. Remarks and Mutation Lists Mutation / Transfer Approval orders, crop loans (KCC), bank mortgages, and court orders. Confirm that the remarks column shows a clear title for the parcel.

Buyer Verification Diagram: Side-by-side comparison of Meghalaya Land Holding Certificate / Patta (Text Ownership Register) and Survey Plot Map (Cadastral Plot Map).
Critical Buyer Warning: Check Column Remarks for Bank Mortgages (Bandhak)

Before paying any advance for land in Meghalaya, carefully inspect the Remarks Column (विवरण / अन्य विवरण). Look for entries stating "बंधक" (Mortgage), bank loan liens, or court stay orders (न्यायालय स्थगनादेश). If an outstanding registered mortgage or bank lien is recorded, a Bank No-Objection Certificate (NOC) alone is insufficient to clear title. A formal Deed of Reconveyance or Release of Mortgage must be executed by the lending institution and registered at the competent Sub-Registrar Office (SRO) under the Registration Act, 1908. Following registration, an application must be filed before the local revenue office (such as the Tehsil, Taluk Office, or BL&LRO) with the registered release deed to formally discharge the bank's charge or lien entry from the Record of Rights.

Administrative Record vs. Customary Land Tenure Verification

While Land Holding Certificates (LHC) or periodic lease extracts serve as official administrative records issued by Autonomous District Councils or the Deputy Commissioner, land tenure is governed by customary tribal laws and community authority. Administrative entries do not confer unencumbered freehold title against clan or village authority. Prospective purchasers must verify village council / clan approvals, local customary regulations, and physical occupation.

भू-आधार (ULPIN): 14-अंकीय विशिष्ट भू-खंड पहचान संख्या (14-Digit Land Parcel Identifier)

Under the Digital India Land Records Modernization Programme (DILRMP), revenue authorities in Meghalaya (Ka Ri Khasi-Jaintia & A'chik) are linking agricultural and non-agricultural plots with Bhu-Aadhaar (also known as ULPIN: Unique Land Parcel Identification Number).

What is Bhu-Aadhaar and Why is it Called Aadhaar for Land?

Just as a 12-digit Aadhaar uniquely identifies an Indian citizen, a 14-character alphanumeric Bhu-Aadhaar uniquely identifies a specific piece of geographic land on earth. It is generated from the exact GPS latitude and longitude of the plot corners based on international ISO 19152 Land Administration Domain Model (LADM) standards.

ULPIN Code Segment Standard Administrative Level Role in Land Registry & Verification
Characters 1 and 2 State Census Code (17) Specifies the state jurisdiction (Meghalaya prefix: 17).
Characters 3 and 4 District Census Code Identifies the revenue district authority.
Characters 5, 6, and 7 Sub-District / Tehsil Code Identifies the local Tehsil, Taluka, or Anchal office.
Characters 8, 9, and 10 Revenue Village / Mauza Code Locates the village survey map where the Plot / Dag Number is situated.
Characters 11 to 14 GIS Centroid Coordinate Hash Unique spatial coordinates calculated from the parcel boundary polygon.
Interactive Bhu-Aadhaar (ULPIN) Format Verifier 100% Client-Side • No Data Saved

Type or paste your 14-character Bhu-Aadhaar code from your computer-generated Land Holding Certificate / Patta to verify its structure:

1. Unique Geospatial Identifier

Provides a single 14-character alphanumeric reference standard based on parcel boundary vertices coordinates under the ISO 19152 Land Administration Domain Model.

2. Inter-Departmental Reference

Serves as a common identifier across revenue, survey, and registration departments to reduce cadastral ambiguity in participating states.

3. Spatial Cadastral Integration

Enables linking of textual Record of Rights (RoR) data directly with computerized GIS village maps (Bhu Naksha) where surveys are finalized.

4. Where to Find Bhu-Aadhaar

Printed in the header of computerized land records and visible on the official state cadastral map portal for surveyed villages.

जमीन खरीदने से पहले जरूरी कानूनी जांच एवं विवाद निवारण प्रक्रिया (Property Buyer Verification & Dispute Appeals)

Land administration and records of rights in Meghalaya (Ka Ri Khasi-Jaintia & A'chik) follow the Meghalaya Land Revenue & Tenancy Regulations (administered by Revenue & Disaster Management Department, Meghalaya & Autonomous District Councils (KHADC, JHADC, GHADC)). Before buying land or settling a boundary dispute, complete these seven due diligence checks:

Seven property checks before buying land in Meghalaya

Due Diligence Step What to Verify on Meghalaya Revenue & Autonomous District Council Records Critical Legal Risk / Red Flag
1. Title & Fractional Share Match Cross-verify the seller's name, parent/spouse name, and exact fraction in the Land Holding Certificate / Patta register against the Sub-Registrar registered deed. Red Flag: Discrepancy between the registered Sale Deed and the live computerized Land Holding Certificate / Patta. Never purchase property based solely on an unverified power of attorney (GPA).
2. Electronic Evidence Admissibility (Section 63 BSA 2023) Download a Digitally Signed QR Copy from Meghalaya Revenue & Autonomous District Council Records or obtain a certified copy from the respective Tehsil / Revenue office. Red Flag: Uncertified portal printouts serve for informational reference only. For judicial proceedings, bank mortgages, or statutory registrations, obtain an officially certified extract or digitally signed copy bearing QR validation as governed by Sections 63 and 74-76 of Bharatiya Sakshya Adhiniyam, 2023.
3. Encumbrance & Bank Liens Inspect Remarks Column 7/8/9 of the Land Holding Certificate / Patta and verify 12 to 30 year Encumbrance Certificates (EC) on the state registration portal. Red Flag: Undisclosed Kisan Credit Card (KCC) agricultural loans, cooperative bank hypothecations, or commercial bank mortgage charges.
4. Pending Litigation & Stay Orders Check if the Plot / Dag Number has pending succession (Varasat) disputes, partition suits, or revenue court injunction orders. Red Flag: Buying land subject to pending litigation under Meghalaya Land Revenue & Tenancy Regulations (administered by Revenue & Disaster Management Department, Meghalaya & Autonomous District Councils (KHADC, JHADC, GHADC)). Transfer during litigation is subject to Section 52 Transfer of Property Act (Lis Pendens).
5. Restricted & Non-Alienable Land Verify the land class code (e.g. Government Vested, Ceiling Surplus, Gram Sabha, Bhoodan, Waqf, or SC/ST Tribal Protective Tenancy). Red Flag: Sale of assigned, tribal, or ceiling surplus land without prior statutory permission from the District Collector is null and void ab initio.
6. Land Use & NA Conversion Order If buying for residential or commercial construction, verify the formal Non-Agricultural (NA / Diversion / Bastu / CLU) order number. Red Flag: Constructing on unconverted agricultural land risks demolition and heavy penalties under state town planning and revenue codes.
7. Ground Chauhaddi & Cadastral Naksha Match Measure the parcel physically and match all 4 boundaries (North, South, East, West) with the scaled village map (`1:4000`). Red Flag: Encroachment by neighboring plots or mismatch between physical ground boundaries and the digitized cadastral sheet.

Official revenue appeal hierarchy in Meghalaya

If you find a spelling error in your Land Holding Certificate / Patta, face boundary encroachment, or experience delays in Mutation / Transfer Approval, follow this administrative appeal hierarchy:

Administrative Tier Designated Revenue Authority Statutory Role & Citizen Recourse
Tier 1: Village Level Circle Revenue Officer / Amin Performs ground boundary verification, inspects physical possession, and verifies the Plot / Dag Number.

Statutory Service Timeline: Governed by Meghalaya Land Revenue & District Council Regulations: service timelines follow customary clan council verification and deputy commissioner inquiry. • Bhu-Aadhaar Status: ULPIN is being implemented through the national land-records modernisation programme. Availability varies by state, district, village and parcel. Check the official DILRMP status information or the relevant state revenue portal before assuming that a parcel has an assigned ULPIN.

दाखिल-खारिज (नामांतरण) केस की स्थिति ऑनलाइन कैसे चेक करें? (Check Mutation Status Online)

After executing a registered sale deed, gift deed, or succession filing in Meghalaya (Ka Ri Khasi-Jaintia & A'chik), completing Mutation / Transfer Approval is mandatory to substitute the seller or deceased owner's name with your name in the official Land Holding Certificate / Patta. Follow this tracking guide on Meghalaya Government Portal:

Statutory Timeline and Service Delivery Standard: Mutation processing time depends on the applicable state service delivery notification, application category, and case circumstances. Where an official time limit is published, this guide identifies the relevant statutory notification and the event from which the service period is calculated (such as case registration in the revenue court). Contested cases, physical survey or subdivision, hearing notices, and missing title deeds follow separate procedural timelines under state revenue codes.
Four Official Ways to Search Mutation Status on Meghalaya Government Portal:

1. By Revenue Court Case Number (वाद संख्या): Enter the official computerized case number generated during application filing.
2. By Registered Deed Number (दस्तावेज संख्या): Enter the Sub-Registrar deed number, volume, and registration year from your sale deed.
3. By Applicant or Party Name: Search by buyer name or seller name with father/husband name in Devanagari or English.
4. By Plot / Dag Number / Mauza: Select your District → Autonomous Council / Revenue Circle → Mouza / Elaka / Nokma Area and enter your plot number to see all pending or disposed mutation cases.

Statutory mutation approval stages in Meghalaya

Mutation Stage Statutory Procedure & Officer Action What Citizen Must Verify
1. Application Submission & Filing Acknowledgment Application submitted online on the official Meghalaya revenue portal (Meghalaya Revenue & Autonomous District Council Records) or at the local Tehsil / Sub-Divisional counter, generating a computerized Case / Application Number. Secure the computerized filing receipt and record the official application tracking number.
2. Statutory Public Notice & Objections Public notice is issued inviting objections in accordance with statutory procedures under applicable State Land Revenue Act and Rules. The notice period allows recorded right-holders to submit valid claims. Check the specific notice expiration date indicated on your case acknowledgment receipt. Undisputed cases proceed for field verification.
3. Field Verification & Possession Report The designated local revenue officer (Village Revenue Officer, Revenue Inspector, or Patwari) visits the ground to verify peaceful physical possession and boundary compliance. Confirm that the field verification report has been endorsed and submitted to the competent revenue authority without adverse remarks.
4. Hearing & Competent Authority Order The designated Revenue Officer (Tahsildar, Circle Officer, or Sub-Divisional Magistrate) reviews statutory verification reports, examines deed validity, and passes the formal mutation order. Download or obtain a certified copy of the signed disposal order. Confirm that plot extent and buyer details are accurately sanctioned.
5. Computerized Record of Rights (RoR) Update The computerized revenue cell executes the order, formally updating the official Land Holding Certificate / Patta ledger and issuing the updated ownership extract. Download a fresh copy of your computerized Land Holding Certificate / Patta from Meghalaya Revenue & Autonomous District Council Records to verify that your ownership title is officially recorded.
What to Do If an Objection (आपत्ति) Is Filed Against Your Mutation

If a co-sharer or third party files an objection during the notice period, the case converts from an undisputed summary proceeding into a regular contested revenue lawsuit (विवादित वाद). Both parties are summoned with notices. As the buyer, you must present the certified copy of your registered sale deed, proof of physical possession (Chauhaddi), and modern computerized Land Holding Certificate / Patta extracts. Under Meghalaya Land Revenue & Tenancy Regulations (administered by Revenue & Disaster Management Department, Meghalaya & Autonomous District Councils (KHADC, JHADC, GHADC)), summary revenue proceedings cannot determine complex civil title questions, which belong exclusively to the Civil Court.

How to Link Old Sale Deed Plot Numbers with Modern Computerized Land Holding Certificate / Patta

If your registered property deed dates back several decades, the plot number recorded on the deed may refer to older Cadastral Survey (CS), Revisional Survey (RS), or pre-consolidation (Chakbandi) settlement registers. To find your modern Plot / Dag Number:
1. Check the Chauhaddi (चारदीवारी / Four Boundaries) on your registered deed to identify fixed physical benchmarks (neighboring roads, canals, or ancestral plots).
2. Open the village cadastral map (Survey Plot Map) on Meghalaya Revenue & Autonomous District Council Records and visually locate the plot shape using neighboring benchmark numbers.
3. If the survey numbers changed during re-settlement, request a Comparative Table (मिलान तालिका / Charkatta) from the District Collectorate Record Room (मुहाफ़िज़खाना) to bridge old survey numbers with current computerized records.

Troubleshooting search and portal errors in Meghalaya

If the government portal returns blank results or an error, check these database entry rules:

Mutation Processing

Record not found after recent registration

A recently registered transaction may not appear in the online Record of Rights until the mutation process has been completed and the record updated. Processing and update times vary by state, service category, and case circumstances. Use the official application-status facility or contact the competent revenue office for the status of your case.

Entry Format

Standard Database Format

Enter the complete Plot / Dag Number and select your District and Autonomous Council / Revenue Circle before searching.

Script Mismatch

Name search returns zero results

State revenue databases store owner names in the regional script. Searching in English letters returns blank results. Enter the name using the script tool below or search by plot number.

Pop-up Block

Map shows a blank white page

Cadastral map engines open plot reports in a separate window. Allow pop-ups in your browser settings for https://megrevenuedm.gov.in/.

Document check: Remarks and encumbrance verification

Inspect the liabilities and remarks column of the Land Holding Certificate / Patta. Unresolved bank charges, ceiling reservations, or court disputes recorded here must be cleared before completing a purchase.
