What is Conversion in West Bengal?
The permission that changes a plot's recorded use away from agricultural. The Porcha records a classification for each Dag, and building on land still classified as agricultural without converting it is a problem that surfaces later, at sanction or at sale. It is decided at the BL&LRO.
