Abstract
The Balochistan Land Revenue Act of 1967 serves as a comprehensive manual for managing land revenue in the province, delineating the rights and obligations of various stakeholders involved in the process. The text comprises numerous sections detailing the appointment, powers, and duties of revenue officers, as well as the procedures concerning land revenue matters. A notable feature of the Act is the authority granted to the Government to activate specific provisions in different regions of Balochistan through notifications, offering flexibility in implementation according to local conditions. Moreover, the Act allows for exceptions in areas where certain provisions are deemed inappropriate by the Government. It also addresses issues such as preventing encroachment on communal lands, the submission of reports to pertinent committees, and the limitations and procedures regarding appeals and reviews of revenue officers' decisions.
In Chapter VI the Act outlines rights of government in mines and minerals, ownership of forests, quarries and waste-lands. The text further provides for compensation for infringement of rights of third parties in exercise of a right of Government. The Act consists of 185 Articles divided into 15 Chapters.
