LEGAL BASIS
In Punjab the record of rights for a revenue estate is the jamabandi, and its certified copy is a fard, issued online on jamabandi.punjab.gov.in as a digitally signed copy with a QR code or at the Fard Kendra of the tehsil or sub-tehsil. An entry in it is presumed true only until the contrary is proved (section 44 of the Punjab Land Revenue Act, 1887). A fard shows the jamabandi as it stood when the copy was made, and a mutation sanctioned since the last 15 June may not be in it (paragraph 7.56 of the Punjab Land Records Manual). In Chandigarh only the Union Territory's revenue villages keep this record, through the Revenue Department of the Chandigarh Administration; a sector property held from the Estate Office has none.
