BhuSakhi serves Assam: the Jamabandi, the dag, the Circle Office, in Assamese. A state is a plugin here, so the same engine already carries the neighbouring vocabularies — a 7/12 extract in Maharashtra, an RTC in Karnataka — which is what keeps the Assam pack honest about what is verified and what is not.
These carry hand-authored services: real prechecks, fee formulas and, for inheritance, an append-only record write. Every other state runs the generated catalogue. No live government system is contacted.
No live government filing, payment, decision or record update is performed.
No live government filing, payment, decision or record update is performed.
No live government filing, payment, decision or record update is performed.
These carry the local terminology and the full canonical workflow catalogue. They do not yet carry hand-authored prechecks or fee formulas.
A large share of land in the islands is government or forest land, and tribal reserve areas in the Nicobar group are governed separately. Local terminology for this state is not yet verified, so the generic English terms are shown above rather than a guess. BhuSakhi does not access live land records for this state, submit an official filing, collect an official payment, or update a government record. Local terminology that is marked unverified remains unverified; no law, fee, or service timeline is asserted here.
Andhra Pradesh keeps the village land account as the Adangal, also called the Pahani, with land identified by survey number and a holder identified by khata number. The office to visit for most revenue work is the Mandal Revenue Office. The local word for a transfer entry is not separately verified here, so the plain term "mutation" is used. BhuSakhi does not access live land records for this state, submit an official filing, collect an official payment, or update a government record. Local terminology that is marked unverified remains unverified; no law, fee, or service timeline is asserted here.
Much land in Arunachal Pradesh is held under community and customary arrangements rather than a settlement-based record of rights, and the position varies between districts. Local terminology for this state is not yet verified, so the generic English terms are shown above rather than a guess. BhuSakhi does not access live land records for this state, submit an official filing, collect an official payment, or update a government record. Local terminology that is marked unverified remains unverified; no law, fee, or service timeline is asserted here.
In Bihar the register of holdings is the Jamabandi, a plot is a khesra, a holding is a khata, and getting a transfer entered after a sale or a death is called dakhil-kharij. The office that does it is the Anchal (Circle) Office, headed by the Circle Officer. BhuSakhi does not access live land records for this state, submit an official filing, collect an official payment, or update a government record. Local terminology that is marked unverified remains unverified; no law, fee, or service timeline is asserted here.
The village land in Chandigarh follows the surrounding Punjab pattern of Jamabandi, khasra and khewat, with a transfer entered as an intkaal. Much of the city itself, however, is allotted property held on lease or freehold from the Estate Office and does not run through that record at all; that side is not covered here. BhuSakhi does not access live land records for this state, submit an official filing, collect an official payment, or update a government record. Local terminology that is marked unverified remains unverified; no law, fee, or service timeline is asserted here.

BhuSakhi does not access live land records for this state, submit an official filing, collect an official payment, or update a government record.

Local terminology that is marked unverified remains unverified; no law, fee, or service timeline is asserted here.
Delhi’s rural and urban village land is still described by khasra number in the revenue record, with a khatauni for the holding, and areas are commonly stated in bighas and biswas.

BhuSakhi does not access live land records for this state, submit an official filing, collect an official payment, or update a government record. Local terminology that is marked unverified remains unverified; no law, fee, or service timeline is asserted here.
