JL no.s, Mouza, Touzi etc. But i do not know the deed no., a copy of which is urgently needed. How can i get the exact deed no. along with the book/vol. no., page no. etc. The land belongs to Durgapur Development authority (West Bengal), which was leased to a housing co-op socy. I am told that old deeds have been moved to record rooms in district hq's, but since i do not know the number of the deed, it is difficult to search. I have searched for it through RTI's but without success.
