What is Khatauni?
The record of rights: who holds which plots in a village, grouped by holder.
While the khasra is organised plot-by-plot, the khatauni is organised person-by-person. Your khatauni entry lists all the khasra numbers you hold, their total area, and the kind of right you have over them. This is the document people mean by 'land records' - in Uttarakhand you can view it online on the Bhulekh portal or get a certified copy (nakal) from the tehsil.
