Summary
- This Schedule defines the exact physical boundary, or the area, of land that is being acquired by the Central Government under the Act.
- According to Section 2(a), the acquired area includes not only the land itself but also all buildings, structures, or other properties comprised therein (meaning built or contained within it).
- The property is located across three specific villages: Village Kot Ramchandra, Village Avadhkhas, and Village Jalwanpur.
- All three villages are situated in Pargana (an old administrative division of land) Haveli Avadh, tehsil (a local administrative area) Faizabad Sadar, in the District of Faizabad in the State of Uttar Pradesh.
- The Schedule lists exact land measurement units using traditional Indian units called Bighas, Biswas, and Biswansis to specify the size of each acquired plot.
- It identifies specific parts of certain plots by listing their exact neighbors on the north, south, east, and west so there is no confusion.
