1. Assignment: Each survey number is assigned to a specific plot of land, helping to differentiate between various ownerships.
2. Main Survey vs Subdivisions: Survey numbers can have subdivisions (e.g., 1/1, 1/2) which indicate portions of a larger parcel.
3. Reading Your Patta: Your patta will display the survey number, which you can use for verification and transactions.
4. Verifying Survey Boundaries: To confirm boundaries, refer to the Field Measurement Book (FMB) available at local revenue offices.
