Major Change in Punjab Land Revenue Act 1967 | New Rules for Partition Cases 2026

About This Video: The Government of Punjab has taken a revolutionary step to resolve long-standing land disputes by amending Section 161 of the Punjab Land Revenue Act 1967. This amendment aims to provide speedy justice to landowners by shortening the lengthy appeal process in partition (Taqseem-e-Arazi) cases. In this video, I, Adnan Husnain Advocate, explain the practical impact of this new law and how it will save years of litigation for common citizens. Key Highlights of the Amendment: One-Appeal Policy: The right to multiple appeals in land partition cases has been abolished to ensure faster resolution. Direct Appeal to DC: All first appeals in partition cases will now be heard directly by the Deputy Commissioner (DC). Finality of Decision: The DC’s decision will now be considered final, removing the previous option to appeal before the Commissioner or Additional Commissioner. Effective Date: This amendment has been implemented across Punjab starting from April 9, 2026. Why This Matters: This change is a major victory for landowners who previously spent decades in courts. By limiting the appeal process, the government has reduced the legal expenses and time consumed in land partition disputes, making the system more efficient.
