ASSIGNMENT OF GOVT. LANDS

History and Evolution of the Erstwhile Board of Revenue :

• It is a very ancient institution in the Revenue Administration of

the Presidency of Madras which had its origin on 20th June,

1786, with the sanction of the Court of Directors of the East

India Company.

• The functions exercised by the Board were like Land Revenue

Administration, collection of Revenue from Ryotwari, Zamindari

Estates, Inams, Religious and Charitable Endowments,

Stamps, Forest Abkari Revenue, superintendence and control

of all kinds of Irrigation Canals, Tanks etc., and all other works

now being attended to by PWD. By Regulation V of 1804, it

was constituted by Court of Wards. It thus became a very

powerful body in the administration.

• After the formation of State of Andhra Pradesh, the Government

acting under Section 122 of the States Reorganisation Act issued

G.O.Ms.No.1270, Revenue Department dated.3-7-1957 specifying

among other things, the Board of Revenue, functioning in Andhra

area immediately before 1-11-1956 as the competent authority to

exercise functions exercisable under the Hyderabad Board of

Revenue Regulations of 1358 Fasali. Thus the Unified Board of

Revenue functioned for the entire State from 1-11-1956 till the

replacement of Unified Board of Revenue by Commissioners vide

A.P. Board of Revenue (Replacement by Commissioners) Act,

1977. Thereafter the Commissioners are appointed in the place of

Revenue Board Members.

Revenue Board in the year 1878.

Land Administration and related matters have been formulated, of

• In the Telangana Area, the supervision over the District

Administration was in the hands of four Regional Commissioners

called Subedars until 1949, when under the Hyderabad Board of

Revenue Regulation 1358 Fasali (1949). The Board was

constituted by Court of Wards and also vested with appellate and

review powers which till then were being exercised by the

Government in the Revenue Department. The Board was

empowered to exercise powers of superintendence, direction and

control over all the authorities in relation to Land Revenue, Excise,

Customs, Registration and Stamps etc.,
