SCHEME - PROGRAMMES
1. Mizoram is Non-land record State in terms of Land Record Management. The Land Revenue and Settlement embarked on planned economics development and ambitious development programmes were drawn up for efficient land and land revenue administration which calls for supreme need to create accurate land records with regular updating of such land records. Significant developments have taken place since Mizoram attained statehood in 1987 in the implementation of Land Reforms Programme and Land Revenue Administration. The absence of correct and up-to-date land records of villages and towns has injured the interest of numerous land owners, the bulk of whom are led to unavoidable land disputes and thwarted the implementation of Land Reform Programmes.
In view to cope with the needs of the citizens to confer with ownership rights to their lands and to prepare accurate land records the Land Revenue & Settlement Department has conducted Survey, Settlement and Preparation of land records operation in two methods, i.e. Piecemeal and Village wise/ area wise operation at various pockets in Mizoram.
2. Piecemeal Survey
Under this scheme a citizen has to submit an application for allotment of land or settlement of land or settlement of disputes etc. The work programme are therefore chalked out depending availability of applications received from the citizens. The Piecemeal Survey has no any specific area but as per demands of applicant for various pockets in Mizoram. This piecemeal survey is contemplated to meet the immediate needs of the citizens. Under Piecemeal Survey Prismatic Compass and Measuring Tape are mainly used for Field Survey Works.
3. Cadastral Survey Operation
3.1 This is original survey and settlement operation consisting of three important stages, viz;
(i) Preparation of village map and land parcel map;
(ii) Preparation of record-of-rights;
