10.1. Forms of agricultural register with instructions - The forms of the nine registers included in the patwari's copy of the village note book (paragraph 398 of the Land Administration Manual), with instructions for their preparation, are given below. The note books for each village and assessment circle and for the Tehsil are kept in the Tehsil in the same form, except that they have an additional statement, No. 10. Variations in the forms of the several statements to adapt them to the special circumstances of a district Tehsil or circle, can be sanctioned by the Financial Commissioner. Statements 1 to 5 are prepared annually, but statements 6,7 and 8 are only prepared in the year of quennial attestation of the jamabandi. The field kanungo will carefully supervise and guide the patwari in preparing statements 6.7 and 8 as they are of somewhat difficult character. He will be responsible for their correctness, and they will be signed by him as well as by the patwari.
