Kumbhara Stone Quarry Auction Record

Identifier

AR-011-0011

Description

The record is of Nana Khachar Sadul Khachar of Chotila, where the stone quarrying site in Kumbhara was laid out for auction. The auction was given for an area that showed waterlogging post-monsoon. The auction is for 2 2-acre area of land and states that the permission for quarrying was given after cash payment of Rs 2500-3100 INR. Its archival significance lies in revealing how natural resource use was formally recorded and monetized, reflecting early practices of environmental assessment, valuation, and regulation within princely state administrations.
