<p><span class="em">Question 10: what is the total area of land that are in the name of a female member of the family? </span><div class="i1">Unit: Bigha <br />Area: [blank]<br /><br />Unit: Kattha <br />Area: [blank]<br /><br />Unit: Dhur<br />Area: [blank]<br /><br />Unit: Ropani <br />Area: [blank]<br /><br />Unit: Aana <br />Area: [blank]<br /><br />Unit: Paisa <br />Area: [blank]</div><p>Here an area of land or house means the total area occupied by the female owned house or land and land without house. There might be one or more than one female members in the family.</p>

<p>If one or more than one female members in the family have a land or house registered in their name, ask them one by one the total area of land they have owned and identify the land area owned by all the female members. Similarly, if any of female members in the family have a house in their name, both the area occupied by the house and the area of land with the house should be specified in the heading of the land area. The area should be stated under the reference of Bigha or Ropani. While stating the area of the land, this should cover both the land that the family is using and the land they have rented or leased to others which are in the ownership of female members of the family, all over Nepal, and should be added up all the land. If there are any other references of measurement such as Mana/Pathi, then such areas should be converted into Ropani or Bigha. The converting method from one reference to another has been placed at the end of the document, in annex. </p>
