What Is the Bihar Bhumi Portal?
Bihar Bhumi is the official portal of the state’s Revenue and Land Reforms Department. Jamabandi, ROR, Khata-Khesra, mutation (Dakhil Kharij) — almost every land service is in one place. The Jamabandi register can be viewed without registration.
Key Terms: Khatiyan, Khesra, Jamabandi, Dakhil Kharij
Khatiyan: the primary ownership record — plot numbers, area, tenure, and recorded names.
Khesra: the survey number of a land parcel (called khasra in most of north India).
Jamabandi: the comprehensive record of ownership + cultivation + revenue.
Dakhil Kharij: recording the new owner’s name after sale, inheritance, or partition (mutation).
LPC (Land Possession Certificate): the government certificate of land possession/ownership.
How to View Khata-Khesra Online (Complete Method)
Step 1: Open biharbhumi.bihar.gov.in.
Step 2: From the left menu, choose “Jamabandi Panji Khesra Vaar Vivaran”.
Step 3: Select your district → sub-division → circle (anchal) → mauja (village).
Step 4: Enter the Khata number or Khesra number and press Submit.
Step 5: Your Khatiyan / Register-2 details appear on screen — view or download them.
Alternative method: on the homepage, use “Apna Khata Dekhen” — select district → anchal → mauja, search by Khata number, Khesra number, or name, and press “Khata Khoje”.
How to View the Jamabandi Register
Use “View Jamabandi Register” on the homepage — select district, circle, mauja, and halka, then search by account number, plot number, or Jamabandi number to view, download, or print the complete Jamabandi.
How to Track Dakhil Kharij (Mutation)
After buying land, inheritance, or partition, getting Dakhil Kharij done is essential. On the Bihar Bhumi portal, the Dakhil Kharij application can be filed online and its status tracked. If the file gets stuck, a ₹10 RTI application usually gets things moving.
How to Get Errors Corrected (Parimarjan)
If the name, khesra, or area is wrong, apply for correction on the Parimarjan portal (parimarjan.bihar.gov.in):
- Click “Post Your Application”.
- Enter name, email, mobile and complete OTP verification.
- Provide complete property details and upload supporting documents.
- Note the acknowledgement number and track the status.
After verification and sometimes field inspection, records are updated in about one month.
Which Other Portals Are Useful?
- Bhumi Jankari (bhumijankari.bihar.gov.in): registry deed search — by serial number or party name.
- LRC (lrc.bih.nic.in): Bhu Naksha — plot boundaries and map.
