1.  Collection of Land Revenue -The collection of land revenue is regulated by the Punjab Land Revenue Act, 1887, and the rules issued under it.  The procedure to be followed when the defaulter lives in a district other than that in which the arrears have accrued, is laid down in the Revenue Recovery Act I of 1890.  The following instructions should also be observed, and Chapter XV of the Land Administration Manual should be consulted.

2.  Fee on applications for process by village officers - The Governor of the Punjab has been pleased to remit the fees chargeable on applications under section 97 of the Punjab Land Revenue Act, made by village officers in accordance with the provisions of rule 64 of the rules under that Act.

A. – Writs of Demand and Execution of Processes.

is due from you on account of land revenue  [ and ] you are hereby required to pay into the tehsil the said sum, together with the sum of due as talbana fee, amounting to a total sum of Rs. on or before the

Signed

Revenue Officer.

4.  Period within which to be returned - The person receiving the writ is held responsible for its return within six days from the date of issue, and may be entrusted with any number of writs which he can serve without exceeding this period.

5.  Rate of talbana - A separate writ, warrant or other coercive process shall issue for each defaulter except in the case of those who are jointly responsible for the payment of the arrears, when a joint process shall issue.  For the service of every writ, warrant or other process for the collection of revenue under Chapters VI and VII of the Punjab Land Revenue Act, a charge of rupee 1 shall be made where the revenue involved is more than Rs.5/- and annas 12/- where the revenue valued is Rs 5/-or less.  This rule applies to processes issued for the recovery of sums recoverable as arrears of land revenue (e.g. income tax), as well as to processes issued for recovery of land revenue proper.

6.  Recovery of arrears -The procedure for the recovery of arrears on the application of village headmen (under section 97 of the Punjab Land Revenue Act) is laid down in rules 64 and 66 of the Land Revenue Rules.

7.  Talbana fee  when  process is issued on application of village headmen -Where a process is issued on the application of a village headman, payment in advance of the fee for service should not be required; the charge should be recovered in the way laid down in section 98(a) of the Land Revenue Act, and the person primarily responsible for the service fee will be the defaulter on whom the process has been served.  If, however, he proves to the satisfaction of the tehsildar that the headman wrongly applied for the issue of the process, the latter will be held responsible for the service fee.

8.   Punctual payments. Instructions to tehsildars - It is the duty of tehsildars to see that all instalments are paid punctually.  If by the settlement arrangements the revenue of a harvest is due in the two instalments, and the first instalment is not paid punctually, a writ should issue at once unless the tehsildar had good reasons for delaying.  The common practice of allowing three days’ grace before the issue of such writs is suitable and may be continued.  Similarly, if the khataunis show that a village, which is entitled to pay the harvest demand in two instalments, commonly pays the whole demand in one sum, the delay in issuing writs may be extended approximately to 15 days; but greater delay than this should not be permitted except under the Collector’s authority.

9.  Processes for collection of land revenue - Writs, warrants and other processes for the collection of revenue under Chapters VI and VII of the Punjab Land Revenue Act, shall ordinarily be served through the agency of the tehsil chaprasis and the fees recovered will be credited to Government, but the Collector may, if necessary, employ additional chaprasis either on service of processes or on ordinary district work.

Such additional chaprasis shall be purely temporary establishment at a fixed pay, which shall be the same as that of the ordinary chaprasis of the tehsil in which they are employed.  The power to sanction employment of temporary additional chaprasis either for the service of processes or for ordinary district work is delegated to Collectors under serial No.23 of paragraph 20.6 of the Book of Financial Powers, subject to certain limitations.  The annual expenditure on such establishment shall be charged against budget head ‘25-General Administration-E-District Administration-General Establishment.’

10.   Defaulters and lambardars must pay in person - Arrears of revenue may not be realized from defaulters and brought to the tehsil by talbana or other low-paid peons.  Such a practice is liable to lead to abuse.  Defaulters and lambardars should be ordered to pay sums due from them into the treasury either in person or through an agent or by postal money order.

11.   Register for issue of writs and warrants - The sadar wasil baqi nawis should be charged with the superintendence of the issue of writs and warrants.  He will supply to the tehsildar the writs and warrants required and bring to the notice of the Collector and delay in the transmission of the statement required from tehsildars in the next paragraph.  Before issuing the writs and warrants to the tehsildars or re-issuing  forms returned, he will check the serial numbers, if any, to see that the series is unbroken, and otherwise number the forms.  He will enter each issue in a register in the  following form :

Year.

Date of order of issue.

Tehsil.

Number and kind of process.

Serial Nos., i.e.,  from                                         to

Date of despatch.

He will send with each despatch any extract of the entry made.  This extract the tehsildar will sign and return.
