Supreme Court Halts High Court Order in Bihar Land Registration Case
If you have been facing issues with the new rules for buying and selling land, there is good news for you. The Supreme Court has put a stop to the Patna High Court’s order which stated that a ‘jamabandi’ (land record) is necessary for land registration. Now, land registration in Bihar can be done without a ‘jamabandi’. Since the issuance of the High Court’s new order, there has been a significant decrease in property registrations.
Relief for People as Supreme Court Stops High Court Order
People were troubled by the requirement to get ‘jamabandi’ in their name for registration. The matter reached the Supreme Court and the apex court has halted the Patna High Court’s order. However, a detailed hearing on this issue has been scheduled for the next date in September.
Increase in Registrations Expected After Rule Change
After the enforcement of mandatory ‘jamabandi’ rule in February 2024, there was a drastic decrease in land registrations across all registry offices. The revenue of the registration department dropped by nearly 80% in March. The implementation of the rule led to a significant drop in the number of registrations, causing various issues for the government and the people. The Supreme Court’s decision to halt the order has brought relief to many, with hopes for an increase in registrations in the future.
पटना के जमीन की खरीद-बिक्री के नए नियमों से परेशान लोगों के लिए अच्छी खबर है क्योंकि सुप्रीम कोर्ट ने पटना हाईकोर्ट के आदेश पर रोक लगा दी है जिसमें जमाबंदी की जरूरत को दरकिनार किया गया है। यह निर्णय लोगों को बड़ी राहत मिली है और बिहार सरकार को भी सरकारी राजस्व में वृद्धि की उम्मीद है। सुप्रीम कोर्ट ने अगली सुनवाई सितंबर महीने में करने का आदेश दिया है जिससे जमीन की रजिस्ट्री में फिर से वृद्धि देखने की उम्मीद है।
