What is Rai Shumari in Punjab land disputes? What is the real role of neighbors’ statements during boundary or possession conflicts?

In this video, we explain the importance of Rai Shumari conducted by revenue officials in Punjab. During land-related disputes, officials from the Punjab Revenue Department such as the Patwari or Kanungo visit the site and record statements from neighboring landowners. These statements help clarify issues related to land demarcation (Haddbandi), right of way (Rasta), and possession disputes.

However, while neighbors’ testimony plays an important role, the final decision is always based on official land records, Jamabandi, and government cadastral maps. This video also highlights why it is essential to remain present during the official inspection and keep your land documents accurate and updated.

Our goal is to spread legal awareness so that no false statement or misunderstanding can harm your property rights.
