Interviewer instructions
The area of land possessed will include land ‘owned’, ‘leased in’ and ‘land neither owned nor leased in’ (i.e. encroached) by the household but exclude land 'leased out'. The total land area possessed by the household as on the date of survey is taken into account. A piece of land is considered to be owned by the household if permanent heritable possession with or without the right to transfer the title vests in a member or members of the household. Land held in owner-like possession say, under perpetual lease, hereditary tenure, long-term lease for 30 years or more, etc., will also be considered as land owned. For a piece of land under the possession of the household, if the household lacks title of ownership and also does not have lease agreement for the use of land transacted, either verbally or in writing, such land will be considered as ‘neither owned nor leased in’. In collecting information regarding land possessed, the actual position as obtained on the date of survey will be considered. It may be noted that the ‘area of land possessed’ to be recorded should not include the area of land owned, leased-in, etc. by the servants/ paying guests who are considered as normal members of the household. The total land area possessed by the household as on the date of survey will be worked out and recorded against this item in code.
