Bihar Extends Land Document Deadline to March 2025

The Bihar government extended the deadline for landowners to upload self-declaration documents to March 2025, from the original deadline of August 2024. This extension, granted during a cabinet meeting led by Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, aims to facilitate smoother processing and updating of land records in Bihar.

The Bihar government announced an extension of the deadline for landowners to submit their self-declaration property documents, moving it to March 2025. This decision, made in a cabinet meeting headed by Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, pushes the original deadline from August 2024.

S. Siddharth, the additional chief secretary, confirmed the new deadline. The extension follows a proposal from the revenue and land reforms department to give landowners additional time.

The move is part of a comprehensive land survey update, dating back to the last conducted in 1911, aimed at reducing land disputes and is expected to complete by August 2025.
