The Rajasthan Land Revenue Act, 1956

How current this text is

Text as published by India Code for the Government of Rajasthan (the "updated" English file), with amendments up to Rajasthan Act No. 9 of 2022.

A Rajasthan Land Revenue (Amendment and Validation) Bill, 2025 (Bill No. 7 of 2025) inserts section 100-A (Government land placed at the disposal of RIICO for industrial areas) and clause (xvii-a) in section 261(2). Its Act number and assent could not be confirmed from an official source; these changes are not shown in this text.

This copy does not print the Chapter headings of the Act and contains many typing errors (for example "swim partition" and "audible estate" in section 186); the text is reproduced as printed.

1[(1) The Collector may, in cases of genuine hardship, order that the payment of arrear of revenue or rent chargeable under this Act or under the Rajasthan Tenancy Act, 1955 (Rajasthan Act 3 of 1955) for which a writ of demand or a citation has been issued under Section 229, shallbe paid in such number of instalments not extending beyond a period of three years and on such terms as to payment of interest as may be prescribed subject, however, to the condition that if default is made in the payment of any instalment, the entire amount of arrear and interest due thereon shall be payable in lump sum.

(2) When any immovable property has been attached by Collector under this Chapter for the recovery of such arrear, the attachment shall, notwithstanding any order fixing instalments made under sub-section 91), continue until the full amount of the arrear, interest due, if any, and the cost of attachment are paid by the defaulter.]
