Hi. There is no restriction to buy or selling Vanikaran Zone lands. Generally, areas around big Dams and thick forest areas are declared as Vanikaran Zone because the Govt does not want big constructions to come up in the area to avoid water pollution and protect the environment. You can build a small farmhouse, Plant trees, and do agricultural activities including Goat farming, Poultry, Cattle sheds, etc.
This is applicable only to areas under Vanikaran Zones. If the saat baara extract shows Van written in the other rights of the saat baara, then you have to take prior permission from the Forest Department before buying or selling that particular land.
However, the collector may grant permission for transfer under the below-mentioned conditions: a) Such a person bona fide requires the land for a non-agricultural purposes or
b) The land is required for the benefit of an industrial or commercial undertaking or an educational or charitable institution or
c) Such land being mortgaged, the mortgage has obtained from a collector a certificate that he intends to take the profession of an agriculturist and agrees to cultivate the land personally or
d) The land is required by a co-op society or
e) The land is required for cultivating it personally by a person, who, not being an agriculturist, intends to take to the profession of agriculture and to whom collector has given certificate that such person intends to take to the profession of agriculture and is capable of cultivating land personally or
f) Such land is being sold in execution of the decree of a civil court
or recovering arrear of land revenue.
