This law, officially known as the Goa Land Revenue Code, 1968, serves as the principal legal framework for managing land rights, ownership, and taxation throughout the state of Goa. It establishes clear rules for classifying different types of land, assessing land revenue, and maintaining accurate survey records to prevent boundary disputes. The code applies to everyone holding land or property within the state and differentiates between rights for cultivators versus builders. Its importance lies in protecting the rights of landholders and ensuring the government can efficiently collect revenue by providing a transparent and standard set of regulations for land administration.
