2.1 I bought land in Kangra district under permission given by the order Order No. 118/2025/412 dated 10 June 2025 under section 118 of the Himachal Pradesh Tenancy and Land Reforms Act, 1972. The land is:

3.1 The work on the land has not yet been started.
3.2 What has been done so far is:
site plan prepared; building map submitted to the local body on 5 January 2026; boundary wall built
4.1 The work could not be finished in the time allowed for these reasons:
the building map was approved late, and heavy snow closed the site for most of the winter
4.2 I have not put the land to any use other than the use permitted, and I have not sold, leased or otherwise parted with it.
5.1 I enclose:
copy of the permission order; copy of the sale deed; copy of jamabandi; photographs of the site; proof of the delay
6.1 I request that the Collector extend the time for using the land for the permitted use by one year from the date the present time ends, on such terms as the Collector thinks fit, and pass any other order that is needed.
