Description

The Vidi register, owned by Chhatrajeet Singh who has managed the estate since the 1970s, records the administration of private grasslands and forest estates known as Vidis. It details payments to staff for monitoring illegal activities, appointments, expenditures for upkeep, and leases granted to Maldharis for grazing, along with the profits earned. As a historical document, it offers vital insights into past grassland management practices in Saurashtra and the shifts shaping the contemporary landscape.
