Law and context
The J&K Land Revenue Act includes survey and boundary-related provisions. Applicable rules and the land’s status determine the proper officer and procedure. A civil title dispute may raise a separate jurisdictional issue.
Practical next step
Collect official maps, survey particulars, title schedules and earlier demarcation reports. State the specific boundary requiring identification and disclose connected litigation or orders.
