What is Bhuinhari land in Jharkhand?
भुइँहरी
Land held under the original clearer's tenure, recognised separately in the Chotanagpur record and recorded in its own register. Bhuinhari rights descend within the family that cleared the land, and the tenure carries its own restrictions, so a Bhuinhari entry changes what a transaction can be.
