Haryana to replace centuries-old ‘Jareeb’ system

Haryanahas decided to do away with the ancient surveying chain, called Jareeb, used for ages to measure land. For centuries,Jareebhas enabled land to be accurately surveyed and plotted, for legal and commercial purposes. This will now be replaced by a modern measurement system.

“A modern technology-based land measurement system will be put in place to replace the age-old chain link (Jareeb) measurement. This will provide greater accuracy and reliability in the measurement of land and reduce the scope for disputes,” Haryana chief ministerManohar Lal Khattarsaid in his Budget speech earlier this week.
