Alluvium Land: Unraveling Ownership, Legality, and Risks

  • Alluvium land is naturally formed by silt, sand, and soil deposited by rivers during floods, often near flood lines or within riverbeds.
  • Legally, alluvium land is considered public property, falling under government or revenue department jurisdiction, not automatically owned by adjacent property holders.
  • Direct buying and selling of alluvium land is generally illegal as it's public property with unfixed boundaries and environmental restrictions.
  • Temporary cultivation may be permitted under specific conditions, but permanent construction, plotting, or commercial use is not allowed due to flood risks.
  • Unauthorized encroachment, construction, or sale of alluvium land can lead to removal actions, fines, legal notices, and cancellation of registration.
