Legal Question in Real Estate Law in India
In a survey number ,the total land is 3 acres (agriculture)as per records from decades.
It was divided by two sons each enjoying equal share.i.e Ac1.50 each.
While so, the second son got employment in the same village as Village Revenue Officer(Maintains records, collects tax, reports to tahasildar).During his tenure, he added his married daughter's name as cultivating 1 acre land in the same survey number.But, neither his land nor his brother's 'land changed.I.e 1.50+1.50+1=4 acres. whereas the total land is only 3 acres.Is manipulating the records for litigation a crime ?If so , who to book the case?The police or Tahasildar?

the thasildar is compentent authority if he does not support file the same with R.D.O of that area
there are two types of revenue record relating your question. One relates ownership which in my opinion rightly continues to be 1.50 each amongst brothers. the other record is possession or cultivation in which your brother has shown his daughter to be cultivating 1 acre under reference to a particular survey number. there is nothing wrong in that.
However, in general, manipulating records is certainly an offence, under 467, 468 of IPC in addition to local land revenue act.
