khas land

Khas land refers to land that is officially designated by the government for specific purposes, such as government use, public utilities, or public institutions. It is often categorized separately from private or commercial land to ensure it remains available for public welfare or administrative needs. In many jurisdictions, khas land may be exempt from certain taxes and is managed or allocated to prevent unauthorized occupation. Recognizing khas land helps maintain clarity about land ownership and usage rights, ensuring transparent land management and preventing illegal encroachments.
