The UTTAR PRADESH RURAL ABADI RECORDS ACT, 2025
The Uttar Pradesh Rural Abadi Records Act, 2025, establishes a formal system for documenting and mapping rural habitation land, known as "Abadi" land, in Uttar Pradesh. Its primary objective is to create a legal record of rights called "Gharauni" for rural property owners, providing them with clear documentation of their land ownership, dimensions, and location. This Act streamlines the survey process, allows for the correction of records, and provides a structured mechanism for updating ownership details through mutation. By formalizing these records, the law aims to reduce land disputes, provide security of tenure to rural residents, and facilitate easier access to credit and government services.
