Land law in Rajasthan is not usually complicated in the way people fear. It is unforgiving about paper. Most of the cases we see began years earlier with a mutation nobody completed, a co-holder nobody consulted, or an agreement nobody registered.
Problems we can help you prepare
Title & mutation
The record still names a previous owner, a नामांतरण is pending or was rejected, or the chain of transfers has a gap.
Boundary & encroachment
Someone is cultivating part of your khasra, or the ground does not match the Bhu-Naksha map.
Partition & inheritance
Joint family land, an unrecorded division, a will being disputed, or heirs who cannot agree on बँटवारा.
Power of attorney
A POA sale you are unsure about — scope, registration, revocation, or whether the real owner ever consented.
Tenancy & possession
A cultivator who will not leave, an old undocumented बटाई arrangement, or a claim arising from long possession.
Conversion & land use
Section 90A conversion, master-plan conflicts, or a structure built without the right permission.
Mortgage & charges
An unresolved रहननामा on the record, or a loan the seller did not disclose.
Cheating & double sale
The same parcel sold twice, forged papers, or money paid against an unregistered agreement. Start at fraud help.
How this works
- Tell us the problem in plain language on WhatsApp — what happened, when, and who is involved.
- We tell you which papers matter. Usually a fresh jamabandi nakal, the khasra map, the deed chain, mutation orders and any notice you have received.
- We help you read them using our document decoder, so you walk into a consultation understanding your own file.
- We put together a one-page fact sheet — dates, khasra numbers, parties, what is on record and what is missing.
- You choose an advocate. We can point you to advocates practising in the relevant tehsil or district court. You engage and pay them directly, and you are free to use your own.
- Keep every original. Give copies, never originals, and keep a written record of what you handed to whom.
Prevention is cheaper than litigation
Almost every matter above is avoidable with fifteen minutes of record-checking before payment. Work through the due-diligence checklist, learn the seven fraud red flags, and never treat an unregistered agreement as title.

Important — please read. AgriZameen is not a law firm and this form does not create a lawyer–client relationship. Nothing you send here is legally privileged. Please give us a summary only — do not upload or send confidential documents, original papers or identity documents through this form. If there is a date on a notice you have received, contact an advocate directly without waiting for us.
What happens next: we read every enquiry ourselves and reply on WhatsApp, usually within one working day. We do not sell or share your number with third parties, and you can ask us to delete your details at any time.

Land Fraud Help Desk
Recognise the common frauds, act fast if one touches you, and know exactly where to report — merged with legal help so one page covers both.
⛑️ First 24–48 hours — do these in order
- Stop all further payments immediately. No "small last amounts," no matter the pressure or promises.
- Sign nothing more. No fresh papers, affidavits, blank documents or "corrections."
- Preserve everything exactly as it is (full list below) — do not confront-and-delete, do not return original papers.
- Write a timeline while memory is fresh: dates, amounts, mode of payment, who said what, who was present.
- Pull the official records yourself — the fresh Jamabandi and Bhu-Naksha for the khasra from the government portals — so you know what the record actually says today.
- Then escalate using the paths below: police / cyber cell for the fraud, and the revenue and registration offices for the records side.
🗂️ Evidence to preserve — your case lives here
- Money trail: bank statements, UPI/IMPS references, cheque copies, any cash receipts — payment proof is the spine of a fraud case.
- Every document received: agreement/इक़रारनामा, token receipts, photocopies of records the seller showed, visiting cards, brochures.
- All communication: WhatsApp chats (export them), call logs, SMS, emails — do not delete anything, even embarrassing messages.
- Identities: names, phone numbers, photos, vehicle numbers of everyone involved, including middlemen and witnesses.
- The land's official record today: a freshly-pulled Jamabandi nakal and map extract showing the current entries.
- Photos/videos of the site, of meetings if any exist, and of any boards or offices used by the other party.
🧭 Where to go — the escalation paths
1 · Police — the fraud itself
Cheating and forgery are criminal offences. Go to the police station of the area where the deal/payment happened with your timeline and evidence, and file a written complaint seeking an FIR. If the police station hesitates, you may escalate in writing to the Superintendent of Police, and the law also allows approaching the Magistrate. If any part happened online — UPI payments to a stranger, fake listings, digital documents — also register on the National Cyber Crime Portal (cybercrime.gov.in) or call 1930; for payment fraud, speed matters because banks can sometimes freeze funds early.
2 · Sub-Registrar office — the deed side
Get a certified copy of any registered deed involving the khasra (anyone can apply). If a deed was registered against you by impersonation or forgery, say so in your police complaint and consult an advocate about challenging it — registration records who appeared and what was signed, which becomes evidence.
3 · Tehsil / Patwari / SDM — the records side
If a wrongful mutation (नामांतरण) has been made or attempted on your land, object in writing at the Tehsil and pursue it before the revenue authorities — mutation entries can be contested and appealed up the revenue ladder (Tehsildar → SDM and above). File your objection early; silence is read as consent.
4 · Civil court — recovering money & title
For recovering paid money, cancelling documents, injunctions to stop further sale, or settling title, you will need a civil advocate. Take your full evidence file to a local advocate experienced in revenue/property matters — criminal and civil tracks usually run in parallel.
5 · Know the limits
Two honest cautions: RERA covers registered real-estate projects — a typical raw agricultural-land deal usually falls outside it. And no private platform, including us, can "get your money back" — recovery runs through police, banks and courts. Anyone charging you fees with a recovery guarantee is very often the second fraud.
📞 Official helplines
🟡 Mid-deal and suspicious? Pause here
Stop-and-check list before another rupee moves
- Have you pulled the fresh Jamabandi from the official portal — or only seen the seller's copies?
- Does the remarks column show रहननामा (mortgage), stay orders, or disputes?
- Are all co-owners named, present and signing — every brother, every heir?
- Does the khasra on the map match the boundaries walked on the ground?
- Is anyone rushing you with "today-only price" pressure? That pressure is the red flag.
- Is the payment traceable (bank), against a written receipt naming the khasra?
Any "no" above → pause the deal and verify first. Our fraud red-flags guide and Zameen Pathshala Lesson 5 walk you through it.
Want a professional record check before (or after) trouble?
We verify parcels against the official portals and give you a written note of what the record actually says — often the first thing your advocate will ask for.
