Dear All, I have discovered a source of cadastral maps for several states. This is mostly under the BhuNaksha initiative of NIC. They seem to have created separate websites for each state. Don't know for how many. I have found:
Maharashtra: https://mahabhunakasha.mahabhumi.gov.in/bhunaksha/27/index.jsp Madhya Pradesh: http://www.mpbhuabhilekh.nic.in/ Chhattisgarh: https://bhunaksha.cg.nic.in/#home-pane (DOES NOT WORK RIGHT NOW) Odisha: http://bhunakshaodisha.nic.in/bhunaksha/ The BhuNaksha websites have a common format: you can choose district, taluka and village, and then the village cadastral map shows up (its in png format). You can click on a plot/parcel, and it will show the details of that plot: area, owner name, etc. You can generate pdf report for that parcel. Maharashtra version had added ability to show you the cadastral map in geo-rectified mode on top of a google-earth-like satellite image--quite useful. CATCH: a) the names of district, taluka, village etc are IN THE STATE SCRIPT: so devanagari for MP & Maha & CG, but Odiya for Odisha. So if you don't read that script--you are sunk b) in most states (except Maharashtra!), it is not enough to know the district, taluka and village name. Within a taluka, you have know Revenue Inspector and then something called 'halka', and then choose from the villages within that halka. If you don't know this (RI and halka), you have to do brute force: search in each halka in each RI! (typical sarkari rubbish: not wanting common people to actually use the website!). Karnataka seems to have its own initiative: https://www.landrecords.karnataka.gov.in/service3/ Here, you can actually download pdfs of each cadastral map, and in some cases, even the KML! And searching for the village is district, taluka and then village. Hope this helps. I am sure there are more such websites for other states. Please look up and share.
