Definition

The principal class of tenancy in agricultural land in Rajasthan under the Rajasthan Tenancy Act, 1955. It is heritable and transferable and behaves like ownership for most practical purposes, but it is a statutory right, which means the statute also bounds it — through restrictions on certain transfers, ceiling limits, allotment conditions, and the requirement of conversion before any non-agricultural use.

The principal class of tenancy under the Rajasthan Tenancy Act, 1955 — heritable and transferable, subject to statutory restrictions.
