What is Khasra?

The plot number of a piece of land, and the register that describes each plot.

Every field or plot in a village has a khasra number - think of it as the land's roll number on the village map. The khasra register records, plot by plot, the area, the soil/land type, who is cultivating it and what crop was grown each season. When someone says 'khasra number 234', they mean plot no. 234 on the village map.
