What is Girdawari in India?

The recording of Girdawaris in respect of agricultural land to show its crop cultivation and the person cultivating it is carried out by the field staff of the revenue department twice a year in the months of March/April and October/ November for the Rabi and Kharif crops respectively.

Meanwhile, Mann has also directed the administration look into the cases of dengue and ensure all possible steps to prevent dengue and other diseases in the aftermath of floods.
