What is Bhu-Naksha in Bihar?
भू-नक्शा
Bihar's cadastral map: the drawing of a mauza showing each Khesra number with its boundaries. Served one sheet at a time, keyed on district, anchal and mauza, so a holding near a sheet edge comes out cut in half — the sheets have to be joined before the boundary reads continuously.
