JAMMU, July 16: In what it can be termed as another instance of administrative inertia in Jammu and Kashmir, confusion continues to prevail upon grant of permission for alienation of the land recorded as Ghair-Mumkin Khad in Revenue records.
Even as the Gair Mumkin Khad does not find any mention in any of the categories of land prohibited for transfer under the new land laws implemented in the Union Territory of J&K since October 26, 2020, the concerned authorities are still awaiting clarification over the same from the higher ups.
Because of the prevailing confusion, scores of people are continuously suffering as they are not able to sell their own land, which has been recorded as Ghair Mumkin Khad in the Revenue records notwithstanding its actual nature being different from water basin and in many cases a developed colony.
