It is very common to find minor mistakes in land records. When you download your Jamabandi (Record of Rights) from the Dharitree portal, you might notice that your name is spelled incorrectly, your guardian's name has a typo, or the recorded land area size is wrong.
If you have spotted such errors in your land document in Assam, here is a complete guide on how to apply for correction online under Mission Basundhara.
Why Correct Land Record Errors Immediately?
If you leave spelling or area errors uncorrected:
- You will face rejection when trying to sell or gift the land at the registry office.
- Banks will reject your loan applications due to name mismatches with your Aadhar or PAN card.
- It can lead to boundary disputes with neighboring landholders.
